Getting more of a October 2003 feel from this. Trajectory and bullseye will be in the Sea-to-sky/Howe Sound area. 250-300mm of rain and a ton of alpine snow melt this time around.

Squamish valley and Pemberton valley both at high flood risk!

I guess the positive is that the Valley isn’t being targeted again?

Torchfest yikes cold retreats north l thought Neetzzz said east gets cold.

The cold east has overshadowed how incredibly warm the Lower 48 have been this winter. I can't remember if I read it was warmest on record but very close. This is how the facts get skewed - a couple fairly normal cold snaps, in a historical context, gets tons of headlines. But extreme warmth overall gets approximately the same attention or less. Like in the arctic, where we are seeing the lowest sea ice extent on record, not to mention sea ice volume and thickness. Potentially for the lowest minima on record here heading into an El Nino. People have no clue what kind of chaos this system is capable of, on top of what's already happening.

All this on top of the food crisis that's coming as a result of the war, and the drought that's causing lakes to dry up upstream of the breadbasket of California (I know it's not necessarily grain they're known for but w/e).

Forgot to mention...

Congrats to Sardine man on breaking your snow drought!!

Alaska, Yukon, and NWT can't catch a break with the cold this winter. A bit of an island to contrast with the overall warm theme across the continent.

We are having some cloudy problems now. Keep your eyes peeled for the elusive +6 to +8c flakes, especially at "Higher Levels"

A year that won't end

[Weather101]

I saw afew flakes this morning out here in Samsquatch country @ the lake l'm o.k. with Seattle getting the wet/white goods doesn't bother me like a January snowfall would.

We will get snow in 2028, don't worry.
