Too much work for me Houndsie we reached a high of 10c @ the pond in south Sardis.
Annus NE winds have died off now so will see by morning if we join the frosty club in the a.m.

Was this early taste of winter weather a warning shot of more to come in November?
Looking forward to the next troffy LR event to show up on the models

It's -2 this morning

It's -2 this morning

So far 0.6c @ the pond in south Sardis that pesky slight annus NE breeze is still stirring things up in the central valley. Hopefully it drops off in the next hour or so the temp can drop abit more.

AI Canada's extended outlook has an El Neetzz approved plus 12c and rain by mid week for the central valley.

Damn you guys in the lower mainland are killing it for freezing morning's the last couple day's still @ 0.6c in the central valley thanks to the annus never ending fake NE outflow.

What the heck is that a mini late October heat hump before the Monsoons arrive mid week Twet.

Low of -1.5c in east Coquitlam!

4 corners high building in the LR.

Man, that's just insane. Hard to believe it was 6C rain here while you were getting dumped on. I consider 10 cm a good score in mid winter, let alone in October.

The official number for the Shawnigan Lake station came in at 14cm. (They always seem to record more than me in these heavy rain to snow transition events). That total will set a new daily snowfall record for October and I believe it will also make it the snowiest month of October on record.

Chilly at 11:30pm.
+3.2
DP -2

Wasn't it just summer?

We only have 2 seasons now. Summer and winter.

It’s early but feels like any really wet periods in the models have been shortened and bookended by ridging so far this season. Feels a bit 2002-2003ish at this point me.
