An oldie goodie of mine:

Where's the snow
By AbbyJr
Parody of Let it snow
By Sammy Cahn and Jule Styne

Oh the weather outside is depressing
With each model run I’m stressing
And since the grass is green below
Where’s the snow where’s the snow where's the snow

It doesn’t show signs of starting
And the cold is now departing
The pattern is a southwest flow
Where’s the snow where’s the snow where’s the snow

Maybe one day I’ll get my wish
Oh I’ll love going out in the storm
But with my luck it will be a miss
And all winter long I’ll be warm!

The temperature is always rising
But sadly so that’s not surprising
Still I’m waiting for some hope to show
Where’s the snow where’s the snow where’s the snow

More arctic farts on the 12Z Euro:

Quite a few puffs of farctic air mixed in with the odd slushy, soggy mess

I'm inclined to mostly believe that Burns Bog reading. It may be off by a bit, but it's totally believable that's a cold spot. The lack of mineral soil at the surface in a peat bog makes for a ground surface with abnormally low heat capacity. As such, bogs often experience temperature extremes. This works both ways: I've been able to harvest wild cranberries shirtless on fall days that would normally be too crisp to do that comfortably, simply because the sun's out and the local temperature has quickly warmed to summery levels.

In my opinion, Burns Bog reading is ok. It's like a (natural) frosty hollow, but not representative of the city of Delta.

Finally, -8.8C in Delta, -6.4C in Pitt Meadows and -5.2C in YVR.

Farctic air! Haha. You guys crack me up. Let's get some 00z runs that aren't as shartic. This mountain snow business is what we need right now.

[Typeing3]

On track to be even colder than last night here. Already down to -1.1C.

[PortKells]

And just like magic, were a touch too warm for mountain snow in the believable range. Time for some cynical yet true Nito comments?

[Forrest Gump]

Low of -4.3C here.

I've gotta go up to como lake this weekend and check that out!

How about the Lights at Lafarge? Is it worth going to ? Worth the price of admission ? Anyways that's where about 10 of us will be going on Monday.
