Snowing here. Malahat was getting crushed when I drove home. Especially after the shawnigan turnoff.

Portland had about 10 cm of snow on April 11 of last year.

Also put this in the Dec thread.

I drove through that cell today. It was intense. It started as I got onto the Mary Hill Bypass heading towards the Pitt River Bridge. There was wet slush accumulating on Mary Hill and hailstones as we went into Pitt Meadows. Hydroplaning on Lougheed just before Harris Road. And that could was DARK. It really was a fun drive, LOL. The cell basically followed just behind me the entire way home and so about 5 minutes after I got into my driveway it started hammering hail at my house.

My lightning tracker on my phone went off and so I saw there were several flashes. But I didn't see or hear them, unfortunately. I'm hoping for more though. Today was pretty unstable.

Some serious cells sliding from NW to SE rn.
Raining the last 20 mins on the Langley bump. Possible chunky rain is my guess..but who cares lol. No visible flakage :thumbdown:
MAYDAY MAYDAY! We need some warm sunny weather this month. Some showers mixed in would be good too :thumbup:
