There is another SSW modelled on both the Euro and GFS. Hopefully we can score another winter event later in the month. :shh: :silent: :wave:

Got home, first thing I did was measure because my priorities are right.

About 3 cm, same as Rubes. Honestly very pleased so I guess I can thank Nito for working so hard to crush expectations :lol:

Still lightly snowing, radar looks like it's very very slow to move west so might still have a couple hours of light flurries but I don't expect it to amount to much.
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)

That’s Stormer’s backyard.

Tbh the hills around here were complete ice. Extremely difficult to get up and down.

I thought about going skiing today but thought better of it. Monday is the day. Sadly only a dusting at my place, not even 0.5cm. I guess we scored on Monday.

Looks like Victoria is getting the goods now.

It’s pretty good! I just wish I wasn’t stuck up here and could go out and enjoy the snow.

Streets are totally iced up here, too. Flash freeze.
It's called clown range for a reason.

Ended up with 5 cm.

I know, it just feels unlikely. As un scientific as that sounds

Basically, yes. Could be some lingering flurries until midnight or so but no more significant accumulations.
