I remember this event and driving on the Haney by pass and seeing the frozen Fraser it was absolutely stunning with all the ice on it.

Snow has tapered off now in the central valley radar not showing much for out here.
Amazing echoes over some areas of Metro Vancouver.

Just thought I’d revisit this image. The 0†of snow that it’s showing for here has busted. Thankfully.
