Snowing at a good clip now, but still not sticking. Hopefully soon.

The models were advertising this as a valley event, but it might end up being more of a north of Fraser event.

2.4C here with light rain.

If the precip rates maintain into the evening, some areas locally will get snow sticking for sure. Usual spots, the hills. hopefully my area too buttees!

I've always found it fascinating how 250 feet or 75 meters is often in the score-zone, but just 50 feet lower is usually in the screw-zone.

About 200’. Just started looking a bit more like snow. Won’t stick, but I’ll take “nice to look at” flakes over rain any day

I don't recall the Valley being so opposite like it has been over the past few years. It used to be the score zone. Sad.
