Been looking at the models a bit and it seems as it temperatures and dew points will support snow to sea level for at least part of the night.

As an example:

This one was especially cruel. Leading into this event, models had the Willamette Valley scoring and scoring big. Then they took the snow away. Then late in the game they give a little bit of snow back… to northern areas.

Quite likely. The question is how much so. Is it strictly a Pornoman special, or does just about everyplace but the beaches and Pitt Meadows get more white stuff? Time will soon tell.
