We got about 9 cm. Victoria about 10 cm, and the Malahat Highway north of Victoria got about 30 cm at its high point.

Snow stopped here about 3 pm, some melting then freezing.

Snow again this morning as another pacific storm rolled in and met the Arctic Outflow winds still blowing out of all the river valleys.

Haha. Yeeah, we do. Well, we all know how Quebec likes to do things a little differently !

The discovery of different types of snow and ice here is ongoing and, like the Eskimos, I have accumulated many words and phrases to describe the various snow related phenomena……….not all of them are polite.

We have a winter storm warning for tonight and tomorrow. They are saying 26 cm of snow, but, in my experience, they meant inches. Apparently another dumping Wednesday night. Enough of the stuff has already been deposited here over the past couple of weeks, so I’m already fed up with the whole snow clearing malarky, talk about knackering, and we are only half way through the season…. probably…

I liked last Winter better.

Re: Winter 2020-21
 

We are forecast for 15-25cm later today, into tomorrow. Thankfully we don’t have any snow clearing to do now,

Roll on summer.

Just got an alert on my phone;
Extreme Cold Warning Has Ended
Sure enough, no red line.

So basking in -25 (feels like -38) then. Another week and you can get your bikini out. ;)

I took a look at the Kootenay Summit camera, and there were 4 or 5 people chatting beside their cars getting ready to go snowshoeing (I think). It looked like it was snowing, but not super heavy, and about 5 minutes later I refreshed the page and there was no doubt. On a nice sunny day there would be 20 or more cars there.

Re: Winter 2020-21
 

It's starting to look up. Although this winter has me seriously considering moving to San Diego.

Re: Winter 2020-21
 

When they're stopped on the road like this, I suspect there's some avalanche clearing going on ahead.

Beautiful crisp autumn morning in Glasgow. Blue skies, about 3C first thing this morning and currently about 10C. Lovely colours on the trees, Glasgow is looking lovely.
