It looks like they are holding out until tonight or tomorrow.. They are so conservative to the point that it's ridiculous. They do this often, but not usually three days out from an event. Terrible communication to the public.

I believe weather network is just inputted from the most recent gfs but maybe I’m wrong on that.

As someone with a fence building company, I approve. That would finish off a lot of the fences that are barely hanging on after the big wind storms.

Onshore flow on Sat. Will need to see 850mb temps below -6c for snow down to sea level.

From what I saw last night, Sunday looked more interesting snow-wise with the arctic front pushing through as the low circulates offshore with precip bands moving through the Lower Mainland.

the old Weather office number at Victoria airport was 656- 3978. AND they used to issue more than 2 forecasts a day! You could actually go into the airport and go up the stairs to the weather office and talk to a meteorologist.
