Oh man, I know tensions are high as we await snow but how about we don't argue and bash other members for their opinion.

I admit I'm questioning why it's currently 3 C right now at my house. Doesn't mean I am not Team Snow, I'm just a bit wary because this is not how I thought things were supposed to go...

Am I NW of you? Flakes are just now starting to look more legit.
I would think the timing of this is perfect to squeeze out some accumulation.

Sky is visibly darkening and snowflakes, while still small, are far more numerous in the air. I expect accumulation to begin here within the hour and EC's prediction of snow becoming heavier by sundown will still be on track.

Just got home. It's picking up slowly. Still very fine grains for now.

Definitely coming down a little harder now. But that’s relative: still quite light.
It's called clown range for a reason.

I think you are, by just the tiniest bit, but I'm literally staring out the window to see every incremental improvement so I'm catching them a little sooner.

Snowing in Coquitlam :clap:
Amazing..tiny flakes..but dry flakes due to low dewpoints..right? :think:
Where in Coquitlam? Nothing at all on the east side.

Edit: with that said, looking towards the mountains, the ceiling has visibly dropped and is definitely snowing up on Burke mountain.

Lightly snowing at Town Centre.
