Never mind. Snowing is not allowed in Richmond anyway!wetcoast91 wrote: ↑Fri Jan 17, 2020 4:52 pm Temps aloft warming. Temps near the surface warmed a bit with daytime heating and clouds have already come. Timing not so ideal for snow.
This will be a quick event IF those SE winds develop. this would warm the region up quickly and kill the moisture associated with front#1 until front #2 passes by and ushers S and SW winds.
If the wind aspect busts then this would prolong snow lasting till Sat morning for Metro Vancouver.
5-10cm seems like a good bet. No confidence Delta or Richmond see much.

Olympic shadow effects in place. Looks like the last storm. Repeats are common
Meaning snow and suppressed S winds again?

Re: January 2020 Forecasts and Discussions
Maybe it's the dreaded SE winds kicking up. If that's the case it could be a slushy cm or two until its all over. What u think Nito?
