Mostly terrain bleed, though we should see some white stuff.

Tonights runs keep the energy far enough offshore and due south to keep us drier while the best snowmaking dynamics veer to Oregon.

I believe it was one year ago today or tomorrow we had that 20-25 cm dump? Followed by another surprise dumping the next day of 10ish cms. Was a pretty awesome event.

Malahat got a slushy dusting tonight.

That's insane Glace, sounds more like something out of Indiana Jones, l would have called a taxi.
Was the Mrs. impressed with your determination.

Thank God the Mrs wasn't with me! She would have been kinda mad!

-2.4 this morning. Couple centimeters of fresh snow on the lawn but didn't stick on the road

Tomorrow afternoon and evening should be interesting. I imagine there will be a snowfall warning for the tri cities and areas above 150m.

[Rubus_Leucodermis]

Blue areas in the lowlands have expanded some on the 12Z NAM 3km.
