12z GFS looks to have shifted north and moderated temps on Thurs/Fri...looks a lot more realistic now.

Also now shows snow for the south coast on Saturday. System approaches from the W/NW which is a favourable track for big YVR snows. :thumbup:

Looks like snow most of the day saturday :clap: . I’d take the more moderate temps if it means we can score a nice region wide snowfall

Everyone prepare themselves. This may be the Calm before the storm so you have a few days but things are starting to line up and look very favorable :wave:
