Doubt it. 3 inches over a few days isn't that much. Abbotsford has had over 3 inches in a 24 hour period in the past.

Yeah I can confirm this, more or less.

We basically get ~2x the amount of rain as YVR, if not more.
It always snows in December in the Kootenays :clap:

Looking nice and warm to end the month and open October. The last gasp of summer before the wet season sets in for good.
