Up until Wed, the models seemed to be advertising a potential snow event for the LM this weekend starting today at noon. Even now, models are continuing to peel back moisture totals the entire weekend.

00Z NAM is running and keeps the front semi-stationary near the Central Island until very late Sun.
Good. The less rain the better.

More people on Mundy today! Ice is probably a bit thicker now.

Lost Lake was crazy busy on Wednesday and Thursday.

+4 and +5's showing up just S of Bellingham. Winds actually appear to turn S overnight. Tomorrow should be a torch day before the precip arrives later on. 70km/hr S winds lead me to believe +10C is possible!

South winds seldom torch as much here as they do in Bellingham, because they tend to bank the low-level cold against the mountains. Often in such situations it can snow in Vancouver while it is well above freezing and raining in Bellingham.
It's called clown range for a reason.
