At least there's no donut hole for the rain tomorrow. We get a good soaking. :shrug:

Stewart is one of the snowiest towns in Canada. Over a typical winter, on average 572 cm (18.75 feet) of snow lands in Stewart.

Is there such thing as too much snow?

I say yes.

That said, I can’t help but be disappointed by the complete lack of daytime snow. That takes a lot away from the snowfalls for me. Most of the snow has been falling when everyone is asleep and/or when it’s dark. My favourite thing by far is daytime snow.
I agree! What's the point if it all falls when you sleep? It needs to be daytime so you can sit with a nice warm drink and watch the flakes fall and build up!

By the way, Welcome to the forum! :wave: Sorry some others are a bit rude tonight and didn't welcome you. :problem:

Visibility looks to be near zero there. Pitt Meadows is literally being wiped off the map.
