:clap: :clap: Prolly for 2 reasons..snow in winter on the coast is like dreaming of a white Christmas..hey, even a blind squirrel can walk into a grounded nut once in a while :roll: :roll:
Second reason is because you have had so much snow out there you are buried and will soon lose your internet. Its ok Antler, i feel your pain :lol: :lol:
Of course it could easily be 18c and bommy during this strong EN, but instead March starts out troffy and chilly! :shock: :shock: Bring on some 18c sunny days

Yep I remember that one. Moderate-heavy wet snow/mixed precip for a few hours in the morning. Picked up a few cm in accumulation before it turned to rain.

Both my place and Vernon had 18 days in a row with the maximum temperature at or below freezing. The record for Vernon: 47 days, set in 1937 followed by 45 days in 1979. The last time Vernon had more than 18 days in a row was 2008 with 21.

For Kamloops and Penticton (the other stations with long records), they both rose above freezing on the 3rd, so only ended up with a streak of just 10 days (Dec 24-Jan 2).

Record for Kamloops is 49 days, set in 1950. Next was 1916 with 37 and 1937 with 36.

For Penticton the record was 45 straight days set in 1937, followed by 32 in 1949 and 31 in 1957.

1916, 1937, 1949, 1950, 1957, and 1979 all were cold Januaries. Our longest and most significant cold snaps almost always come in January, yet it's been 29 years since we last had a cold one (monthly average below 0c) here in the lower mainland.

Hope to see our second shot happens in the first half of Feb. March belongs to spring, don’t want to see any snow by then.
