It's the Sardine comedy hour

I'm not sure if we will get any snow today but I guess we'll see!

Less booing Stuffy bear.

I could be wrong but I don’t think the AR this week will result in catastrophic flooding. It won’t be a super long duration event. And the snowpack will likely be able to absorb at least some of the rainfall from the start of the event.

Agreed

[HarrisonSasquatchWx]

Agreed

l believe you John however lots of plugged catch basins will create lots of street pooling, especially in the central valley. Geesh that's an absolutely insane amout of damage on the seawall in Stanley Park from the king tides and wind it just continues into this year with weather related events, we really need a break. TBH

Roads are very slick this morning after the rain last night froze up pretty good. I was driving to work at 5:00 and started sliding pretty good on the highway 17 overpass before Ladner. I drove much slower the rest of my trip and even saw a car spun out into the snowbank on the turn at hwy 99 and westminster highway in Richmond. My supervisor drives a truck and he told me he was sliding on some of the turns too so be careful out there if your heading out this morning!

Not seeing much signs of cold in the GFS ensembles yet, a couple of members here at there but that's about it.

Look at the east coast winter storm modeled this week! 957mb!

[Pomoman]

Ruh roh!

He seems to think the AR will stall over us, which would just suck. Valley totals don’t look as terrible as last time but the NS mountains seem to get a hit.

Yeah. Roads were crazy bad going to kids practice this morning. City was caught totally off guard overnight.

The GEM is unrelenting on a major Atmospheric River rain event next week. Hopefully its overdoing precipitation totals.

Yeah even in the western sections, Marine Dr in Vancouver, the Knight off-ramp. Also, Byrne Rd and Southridge hill...saw a spin out there.
