YVR reporting a mix as well. I have 90 metres on YVR in North Van and we somehow often seem to have the exact same precip type. What gives?!

Even here the heavier precip has turned the heavy window splats to mixed rain and snow and sometimes all snow, just driving a couple blocks makes a huge difference , but I'm still well above zero at +2.6°

Looks like you gotta be around 300 feet plus to score anything more than splatty snow right now.
