Snowfall Alert!

Good evening folks, are we ready for snow tonight?

Looks like a widespread snowfall will blanket the entire lower mainland tonight into tomorrow.
Between 10 - 20CM will fall. The far eastern valley will be on the lower end of the prediction, as well as the extreme west as the snow belt sets up to deliver between Burnaby and Langley with the higher snowfall rates. Outside of those cities the amounts will taper off. There is some signs this might overproduce, which is curious. Will be a winter wonderland with dry snow Thursday morning covering everything.

Possible intense blizzard setup for the weekend.

Really dynamic right now but we could see a major blizzard impact the south coast over the weekend. I'll say if the models are overdoing the warm-up or the arctic air hangs on we are looking at 40Cm or more over Sat-Mon and possibly beyond. Models are trending cooler so I have no idea at this point. But the possibility is higher than ever before, so be prepared!

On the plus side, though, any map with a 5 over YVR and a 2 over Chilliwack really isn't half bad.

It's catch-up time for Gumps!

Thats because the water back then was more pure, less contamination from pineapple juice, which affects the hardness of the ice....or something a certain member would come up with...

But of course. As soon as I get more optimistic about the expected totals.

Back to 5–10 cm by the time this thing begins?

Take a chance Rubus! Stop looking at the models! The snow totals are often failures on the models. Geez you guys. Have you not learned by now! Its called #MODELFAIL!!!

It's nice knowing we have so many meteorologists, doctors, epidemiologist and engineers on twitter.

Any plumbers?

I'm going to say 8-15 widespread cm with some localized winners and losers at say less than 5 and more than 20.

Lots of people playing hockey on Lost Lake in Mundy Park. Not too many on Mundy Lake, though it seems to be frozen pretty good. I walked all the way to near the middle and it was fine. I'll some pics in a few mins.

Very rare to not have big winners and losers around here.

You have a reputation to uphold on Reddit, so here’s hoping for 25 cm

That was the upper end! We shall see. Would not be a surprise if Westwood Plateau scores that much.

Where’s the moisture supposed to develop? Over the strait or?
