Here's a question for Typer: how snowy was March 1951 at YVR? Someone on the AF posted observations from Blaine for that month, and the first 10 days were ridiculously (as in: about 100 cm) snowy.
It's called clown range for a reason.

:wtf: That's possible however we've all done well this month maintaining a healthy mental attitude that winter could well have been done.
Today was a treat indeed for how this mini cold shot unraveled l think we all stayed busy in our lives to stay grounded. Good job by all members to stay focused l did through family and work l don't let the disappointments of weather get to me anymore.
