Good news for them is they get an ice storm that will knock out their power followed by 55F warm advection rain by Sunday once the southerly winds break through.

Storm...your radar must show some returns over the Strait. Vis imagry showing a pulse of cloud returns coming in from the NW.

Some of this will be snow squall activity with the developing outflow. Good chance for more accumulation on Eastern and Southern Vancouver Island.

What I think did it is when a Portlander whined about MossMan posting too many snow pics from his place near Stanwood that got about 7" and me taking the Portlander to task for being needlessly negative about a perfectly nice little snowfall.

Light flurry in Newton.

Would prefer a gradual or slow melt too. A rapid thaw means higher slope instability increasing avalanche and landslide risks.

The bigger issue though is going to be potential flooding. The snowpack can usually absorb a days worth of rain but now we got 3-5 days of mild rain with 2500m snow levels coming with unusual amounts of snow below 500m. Low lying areas should already be on high alert.

Don't forget to keep storm drains and approaches to storm drains clear.

Fresh shot of arctic air from the interior is starting to trickle into Metro Vancouver. Dewpoints beginning to drop a tad.

What gets me is ifreds posts were the most negative I've seen. So the wrong guy to be in charge imo.

Got to form the local coastal Cascade Concrete.
