We have had snow flurries for the last few days up in the Cowichan Valley. It hasn't laid where we live but it looks good on the mountains around. I normally quite like the snow but last week I planted some vegetables so I am hoping it doesn't stay around too long this time.

Here, all we have is the smell of dog poo thawing out.
Must be spring.

We have about 7cm of snow here at Shawnigan Lake and it's STILL snowing
I can just about see the daffodils in the tubs but the pansies are completely covered
The forecast for the next few days is sunny and much warmer - don't know whether to believe it or not

Aaaaaawww thanks for the offer, but no you can keep your 15ft per second of snow
Actually we had 5cm this morning and I thought of you guys out there and decided not to moan, you have my sympathy in a smug "we haven't got much snow ha ha haha haaaaaa" type way

....if you don't count Tuesday evening
There are definite signs of spring at last. Its going to be touch and go whether the last of the snow banks in the yards is melted before the rink is completely liquid again. My guess it there will still be snow bank remnants in May.

Quite agree with the weather being all over the place at the moment , I was in the comox yesterday and the sun was shining but it did start to snow a little in the afternoon and today here in Naniamo at the moment its snowing and just starting to settle its looking lovely but quite odd to see all the daffodils and crocusses in our garden with a dust of snow

Hi Jo, its still snowing our way but is not laying. Its laying just around the corner from Fisher Road onwards down Cobble Hill and Mill Bay. Still hoping it doesn't lay here (unusual for us as we normally enjoy the white stuff) but thinking of my veggies and all the planting done last week!
