Unfortunately the actual depth would probably never exceed 5 cm or less but it would be fun.

Location wise, I think the banana belt may do well here, just a hunch. South of the Fraser, not as much.

I need 8cm to hit 50 for the season. All in all I guess that'd be a decent outcome all things considered.

I had already started looking towards Spring/Summer and of course next winter.

This upcoming week is a nice bonus for this winter though.

Ya, DP has started to tank. Earlier it was +8 with DP: +7
Now it's +6.2 but DP has dropped to -1


Fair amount of power outages around:

It’s coming. NAM is probably the most accurate as to what eventual amounts will be.
