Well that’s disappointing

It was snowing at 430 and even saw some white on the ground.

Now... it’s only fallen pineapples and coconuts.

It transitioned from -1˚C and clear to 3˚C and rain showers here overnight. Not a flake. Also not a surprise. I’ve seen this sort of thing happen many times before, and it was always a marginal set-up at best.

Seems about right lol not surprising.

[East Chilliwack]

Light flurries here, but not putting much stock in any accumulation.

Very mild morning here... 4.6C and raining lightly now.

Judging by the radar, the main precipitation is still 2 hours away. That's an additional 2 hours of daytime heating. It's hard to imagine there will be any snow at all by then.

Slushy Christmas Eve?

Trending milder and wetter within 10 days. Quick...someone post the CFS that shows cold on day 30.

My local forecast shows a chance of 10°C rain by Saturday!

Its true. The models sort of sucked again. But on the positive side, the snowpack is building strongly. With a few brief periods of rain up there in between, its mostly snow at the high elevations and it will probably stay that way being a La Nina. Last year's snowpack didn't arrive until New Years eve or so. I'll be up there tomorrow. I should be dusting my skis off any minute now

1999/2000! A whole winter where 850mb temps never really dropped below -5C but the Mountains still did well.

1998/1999 was the craziest. Baker recording over 26 meters of snow. A lot of it at the base didnt melt at all before the next winter.

My buddy’s cousins uncle just sent me this from Pickle Lake Ontario

do you light small animals on fire too?

global warming and our west coast ridging do that for us.
12Z GFS even shows a bird being zapped by lightning in 96HR.

Don’t hold back now; let us all know what you really think about Nito.
