Quiet a messy drive leaving YXX for Sardis. Snow, then ice pellets and snow, then down hwy 1 past Sumas way snow with ZR which built up on windshield. Past Cole rd it became mostly just snow and a bit windy from the east. In Sardis its -3.7 and 5cm on the ground. Truck showed -3 most of the drive.

Wild. Up to 9 cm as of 4 AM.

7.5 cm since 1 AM, or about 2.5 cm/hr. I'm very pleasantly surprised.

Sorry I had to fall asleep I was too tired. Lots of snow here now will measure once I get up but looks so nice. Looks like around 8 cm

Looks like a big bust? Radar shows freezing rain and mixed precip everywhere.

According the the hrrr, he might be right and you might be right. Looks like western sections stay all snow and eastern sections might experience a few hours of zr before turning back to snow.

But it could be a lot worse...the ice storm down south is sounding absolutely terrible and could become a big story.

Okay fair. Another Western Metro win though? We're on a roll!

I accidentally fell asleep waiting for the snow to start! I just woke up kinda panicked and then RAN to my window kinda scared to look outside and see no snow at all...reminiscent of childhood snow disappointments, I guess.

But I'm pleased to report that it's a winter wonderland out there and still falling quite heavily. Whew.

[Typeing3]

Looks beautiful out there. Will go out to measure in a bit.

Typer how's the Banana Belt looking? Any frozen bananas yet?

I haven't gone outside to check precip type but we're doing pretty well here. I think you're definitely ahead though, nice work!
