and what if the maps showing all this precip, are similar to the same maps showing major snows, that never happen... :lol: :lol:
We will see what the numbers are by next weekend. Im sure some areas will be hit harder, but most areas just run of the mill rains imo :shh:
Looking forward to our first 3 day stretch of sun and 20c++ 8-)

Well.... Starting the AR with a little snowfall! :clap: :clap: I was watching the rain and thinking it was kinda chunky and now it's white and some flakes are even floating down. Maybe that 4' of snow is underway!

A few new cm in the last couple of hours. 3rd time this week of accumulating snow up here. Doesn't come close to saving winter but not bad by March standards.
Burnaby Mountain @ 365 m..

Stats? Fresh out of those. But I win anyway. I got all the inches.

First measurable snowfall worth a damn. Should reach 4-5cm before the transition to rain.
