Very light flurries in Vancouver near the city hall.

A few flakes coming down most of the way home. Assume they are still floating down out there. -0.7°C.
It's called clown range for a reason.

:alert: :alert: :alert:
ACCUMULATING SNOW
Light, and just a trace so far, but has increased in intensity enough to begin coating some surfaces, because sun is gone and it is dry enough.

I suspect it's so light that it can snow for 3 hours and end up at 0.5 cm, but I'll take it!
2025-26 season stats:
Climo :cancel: ∞ to 0.5 :14clown: GFS

Season total: 0.5 cm and TWO traces!
Peak depth: 0.5 cm (01/07/2026)

So no sign of any accumulation at the rate it's going, but the thick and fine flakes are very nice to look at🥲

Car tops on the street already have snow. Slowly see grass becoming whiter. Paved surfaces mostly bare but there are patches where even that is turning white.
