I can see a major snow squall type deal in eastern North Van right now, looks to be heading west? This could get interesting...

Damn, nice shot. This is like east coast dynamics.
It always snows in December in the Kootenays

Snowfall maps please
What an absolutely stunning winter day in the central valley colder than yesterday at this time. Lots of cold air in Hope and Lytton still.

Drove from 220st (north of highway) to abbotsford, temperatures ranged from -2 to -5. Cold is definitely putting up a fight.

This Cold is very resilient. Very rarely this happens. But this is one of those times...sometimes a sign of the overall weather pattern at play. Maybe it will be default cold/snowy for the next few weeks. Would be nice. Last 5 days around here was outstanding!! Snow flurries moving through somewhere at least once or twice per day it seems.
But today is also a sign of how quickly it can melt around here..and it is mid January with a chilly airmass. The exact reason why i dont really like Feb snows
Looking forward to our first 3 day stretch of sun and 20c++
