The only place in the province with a monthly record is Kitimat. 360.6 mm. Short period of record though.

Maybe 1 in 20 rainfall event in some places. Namely, Coquitlam to Pitt Meadows area.

It wasn't remarkable for the Valley but for Metro it was. Most of Metro I think outperformed Nov 2021, worst since Oct 2003.
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)

Mtn peaks could get lots of snow the next 14 days..cool and wet. It could be a great start to ski season this year. We will see.

Hopefully they don't verify because that usually means it's forks for winter in December.

Bit out there but November is looking very pineapple-ly based on the LR models.

Coquitlam Burke Mountain:

100.0 mm/6 h
154.5 mm/12 h
224.3 mm/24 h
266.0 mm/48 h
291.4 mm total

All-time records have been smashed, shattered, pulverized.
Even though the POR is very short [2014-], this is highly significative. The previous records were much, much lower (half lower for most).

February and March look epically cold on the CFS. Another backloaded winter on the way.
I'll do one better and straight up cancel winter again!
