February 2019 Forecasts and Discussions

Anything under 2cm is basically a non event. Which means only New West was hit today.

It seems like New West, parts of Surrey, North Delta, and White Rock were the ones who scored at least 3 cm. White Rock had 4 cm of new snow when I was there at around 5 PM.

But yeah, the event was super lame for many.

Considering how overdone the snowfall was today in the models...don't bet on even half those amounts.

Kristi G said another wave tonight around 10ish. north Chilliwack received 4cm, south Sardis 2cm.

To be fair this was never going to be a widespread snow event for Metro Vancouver. Temperatures were going to be marginal and any snow was going to be contingent of precipitation intensity.

Except a good portion of Delta got snow.

l thought king snowfall man Gumps got some.

True. But I've read some posts giving Nito a tough time like it was some kind of big snow event. For more than half of the LML, it was nothing. Mostly rain.

After it took me an hour to drive 3km tonight, think I am done with this bullshit Oiler team.

Would have taken less time driving to Coiler game.

I think you mistake giving a tough time for honest and friendly ribbing. He has a warm bias and plays that role to perfection. Temperatures were never going to be plus 5. Even at sea level. Doesn’t mean we don’t appreciate his insight. He’s definitely knowledgeable and I think he takes all of this in stride. I hope anyway.

Wow...that looks like a lot of work

Not really , after reading the original piano man a few times it became obvious which characters to insert in the verses,and the chorus was easy , and I usually try to leave as much of the original wording as possible which I think is key to a good parody song.

Looks like snowbelt Langley got about 4cm today. Maybe even 5 cm

The GFS never put much snow in the forecast. Up to 4cm maybe. It’s the model Cherry picking that got some excited. As usual, the GEM model BS.

Last night the HRRR was almost bang on with light rain to snow to light rain to snow.

[Hound]

Got about 5cm.
Stopped now.
It's melting off the trees already.
Temp -0.1
Better than nothing!

We appreciate Nitos insights and knowledge Boner man, and the joking and ribbing aside, l got kinda choked about it last week due to the fact the weather was crappy and scary for alot of commuters myself being one of them and trying to read between the jokes and reality of what was really going to happen was not funny and l think for alot of lurkers as well. In other words there's a time for joking and last week was not the time.

Nito, predicted rain all over the board with hitting 6°c.
