Quite a number of whitcaps on the inlet suddenly. Windy now and was snowing a few moments ago. Perhaps things are turning quite dynamic after all.

Stats? Fresh out of those. But I win anyway. I got all the inches.

Wow violently snowing just like that. Not super heavy but the winds are something I’ve never seen since living in northern half of metro van.

Exactly what I'm doing. Hot chocolate, melt a bit of crushed leftover candy cane in there, splash of scotch, perfect.

This is the most fun we've had all winter!

Another power flicker. Hearing tons of sirens out there. I wonder what is going on.

That sounds really good. I was just thinking of a hot chocolate


Okay now it’s heavy violent snow here. Crazy bursts.

I was about to but iPhone takes lousy snow photos. Just doesn’t capture the “drama” of it.

Things seem to be easing off now a bit.

Yay! Now I can gloat about my snow forecast verifying (at least for some).

It’s now rapidly clouding up and darkening here. Looks like my chance coming soon.
It's called clown range for a reason.
