Yeah the current wave is already trending east again. Sigh.
But to the south it looks like a wider stream is coming our way.
I reckon the city will have a snowfall warning again. Once it does all snow will stop.
Burnaby Mountain @ 365 m..

Stats? Fresh out of those. But I win anyway. I got all the inches.

None of the msoscale models show anything. But the radar looks good so long as that band is allowed across the border. There's serious juice in that cell.

I’m monitoring the radar for trends. Give it another half-hour and I should be able to say if we have a chance or if we’re basically f*cked.

We might be on the cusp of snow. The bare patch in the sky I saw out west is gone now and the radar is expanding northwestward. Please keep going!

Still snowing moderate but the flakes are so small and fine it's not really accumulating to much.

Light snow continues. Very fine flakes.

Probably picked up only about 0.5cm this evening, so I'm pretty skeptical of getting the 5-10cm predicted by EC.

It is snowing. Finally. And radar looks like it's here to stay for a few hours. (Please don't jinx it)

Started snowing again about 10 minutes ago, coming down nicely. Don’t know how long it will last though.

We've been having light flurries for the past couple hours. Not feeling too optimistic that we'll get anything substantial here tonight.

What is the consensus on what the models are saying for next system in the forecast later this week?
