0.4c and a couple flakes falling. I would be surprised to get more than 5cm before the transition to rain.
Why not try cycling to work, grocery store, anywhere!

People are way too uptight and stressed out and angry on here sometimes

It’s a weather forum. We have zero control of the weather. If we get 10cm of snow or 30mm of rain, none of our lives will change in any way. Enjoy the snow. Enjoy the models. Enjoy the board

These were big trees mostly fir with a couple of cedar. Saw 3 pick up trucks around one big fir on the side of the highway, chunking it up for firewood.

Sechelt had almost no snow, it was mostly in big piles and Gibsons was pretty white on the grass, roads were clear though.
Wow that's a lot of trees, have to applaud the resourceful and opportunistic "Coasters" I'm sure lots of have chain saws at the ready...and some wood stoves!!

I heard upper Gibsons had more snow than some other areas. Glad to hear you were able to get out for some fresh air and see the results (cause ) of the storm and power outage!

Abby_wx wrote: Fri Jan 17, 2020 5:08 pm For the transition to rain, I'm thinking the overnight hours for extreme western sections at or near sea level. It should stay as snow until at least daybreak for higher elevations and inland, especially north of the Fraser. Abby could change to freezing rain overnight, but by mid-morning at the latest... and more like late afternoon for the eastern valley. Best guess for snowfall amounts... 5-10 cm for areas that manage to remain as snow until morning, locally 15 cm for higher levels, and possibly 20 cm near Hope by tomorrow evening.
I'm thinking 15cm for Chilliwack l guess it doesn't warrant a warning. :roll:

No one is taking shots but I have meet people like you and it's putting people down without making it overly aggressive.
Way to go W101, l barely said anything to him and he jumped all over me. Oh l said to stuffy if l'm told to cut back on to much joking then he should stop spamming about his cabin and Similkameen he goes on all day about it.
