Nah, don't worry, Abbotsford will get cold rain in the transition... very cold rain in fact (ZR).

Wawawewa. I like.

Stronger frontogenesis = stronger drier outflow winds and strait enhancement.

Kind of saw this outcome once models advertised a stronger storm.

Think Vic really sees 10 inches lol?

The highly reliable HRRR is starting to up the amounts for the LM it seems.

Rubus should get on it.

I hate ZR events, it just causes so many problems, including with my cedar hedging. Can anyone comment on how long and how much ZR E. Abby might see?

lol models all over the place. They failed pretty bad last minute even, with last nights snow ending at 5pm, i mean 11pm, i mean flurries all night
I picked up ~1cm at some point overnight

Up to 18" for the E island and up to 6" here, why am I not surprised.

Yeah, no kidding. We picked up a couple of cm. with marginal temperatures and set up and we can't even get 10 cm. with system of this size? I mean C'MON

Looks like 5-10cm for me and @canadagoose. Note the much lower amounts in the belt.

To be honest there is a bit too much snow here now. Icicles are insanely long on some buildings. Gonna cause damage if it isn't dealt with.

Another big snow tomorrow and Friday with rising temps. Perfect recipe for damage.

I hear ya lol. How about icicles that actually sublimate away lol. Ive seen it many times. From 18" daggers frozen, to vapour, and shrinking down as days go on and on. Im wondering when is the last time SImilkameens has been above 0c?
Only in the Similkameens! And Kootenays too i guess

YA CMONNNNNNN!!! Frikn Joke! Maybe its model fail and we get buried with 30cms by noon, then clear skies with the odd shower?

Last time it was above freezing here was December 23rd, so probably not too much different in most of the Similkameens.

During the cold spell the icicle growth was very slow. Now with it warmer around -13C they are growing like crazy.
