I usually put a snow board or 2 on the lawn but I’ve found the table on the deck yields very similar results.

Current -0.2
DP -1
The weak deformation band is going westward. This may be aided by low level convergence. 2cm for Eastern sections of Metro Van. Surrey should change to snow soon.

i think it is a little surface Low. Bonus..maybe even more precip! :clap: :clap:
I thought the other one Nito pointed out was pumping more moisture in behind the main front..now this? :thumbup:

Keep it up! The Wetcoast..mostly losses, but sometimes we win too buttees!
