There is a pretty chilly trough missing just to the east around that time.

Jan 1971 was pretty insane. 61 Cm on the ground at YVR on the 15th, gone by the 18th. Another quick hitting blast after that. 121 cm total for the month. Wish I was alive to experience the 60's/70's.

I'm actually seeing some melting this evening, 2.7C with a light southerly breeze. The snowcover has held up surprisingly well the last two days.

Re: December 2020 Forecasts and Discussions
That one was insane. I wish I was alive and living here to experience it too. Pretty dramatic switch to heavy snow as soon as the arctic front starting pushing through.
I don't know why we can't experience these types winter storms anymore. Seems like the 500mb pattern is never prime for it anymore.

Temp has flatlined at -0.5°C here. Odd that Abby has gone above freezing before me. Typically it’s the other way ’round.
Tomorrow looks melty.
