I hope so. Some stats:

18 years (2004) since YVR last hit -10c in January.
20 years (2002) since YVR last had a daily snowfall >20cm in January.
29 years (1993) since YVR last had a monthly mean <1c in January.

This was a cool very wide screen shot of Vancouver and the snow covered mountains from Dec.

I suggest opening the image in a new window to see it full size.

Agreed. I just want a prolonged dry spell. Don't care if it's warm or cold.

First winter I can remember where I’m hoping for a nice, strong, long-playing ridge.

A good stretch of +4/-4 days as many have suggested. After a stalled low in the strait to start the cold snap, of course. :lol: :lol:

Frosty mornings and sunny afternoons and a bed of snow.

RGEM total rainfall through 4am Thursday. Past 4 runs trend. Definitely looks drier than earlier runs, but still really wet.
