41.1 cm.

+0.2c in Sechelt, + 0.6c here.
Warnings
8:08 PM PST Tuesday 31 January 2023
Snowfall warning in effect for:

Sunshine Coast - Gibsons to Earls Cove
Sunshine Coast - Saltery Bay to Powell River
Snowfall with total amounts of about 5 cm is expected.

Locations: East Vancouver Island and Sunshine Coast.

Time span: Now through Wednesday morning.

Snowfall accumulation: 5 cm except higher over higher terrain.

Remarks: The recent cold weather has primed the south coast for low elevation snowfall. As a low pressure system offshore continues to draw in moisture tonight, snowfall will continue over East Vancouver Island and Sunshine Coast until Wednesday morning.

The snowfall accumulation will be highly variable and dependant on precipitation rate, temperature, and location. Current forecast guidance suggests the potential for at least 5 cm of snow with locally higher accumulation over higher terrain.

These flurries are of a distinctly Teflon variety. Hoping that changes when the green colours invade.

I'm starting to see the opaque film re-develop on the paved surfaces where the morning snow had melted. Snow is more insistent now so starting to slowly overcome any bare surfaces again.
