I just tried to re-enable all the extensions we were using and one of them is causing the forum to crash because it's probably incompatible with the latest version of the forum. I updated the forum to the latest version while the site was down. If something you're used to is not there right now, that's because I only have one extension enabled at the moment.
Skooks is missing :( Cpt. Stuffme, can you enable him/her. :D :D It's a breezy NE outflow evening at my work near Sumas in Abbs and overcast.

Clown range snow? Maybe.

In the meantime, EC is calling for highs of 11 tomorrow and Saturday at YVR. :dancepine:
It's called clown range for a reason.

Hey, did anyone from Abbotsford post that they received an anomalous snowfall yesterday morning?

We had snow here in the morning, and it started coming down pretty hard (the site was down so I couldn't post)...

I drove out to Whatcom in East Abbotsford as I live close-by. Everything was completely white there, naturally super wet snow as it was above freezing - they got about 1cm.

The funny thing is that it was raining in the highlands just above whatcom interchange... So strange - just where the cold air was sitting I guess...

Anyway, I figured I'd post that now as I noticed YXX didn't report any snow at all, and it seemed to be just rain west of Sumas Way.

Yes l did Arbes, see my post from earlier this morning.
I know someone that lives within shouting distance of YXX and yes indeed it was snowing there.
So again whatever they use for precipitation is not recording it how many times has this happened are all these unmanned stations all skewed now. :roll:
BTW l mentioned l recieved a trace in the afternoon @ the pond in south Sardis.

Hard to believe we could skip over January and score in February again but that certainly seems possible. If we get any arctic air in January it will almost certainly be at the very end of the month
