Roger Smith Posted January 31, 2024 Share Posted January 31, 2024 Record highs all over BC today, 15 to 18 C widespread. We have lost about 2/3 of our snow pack in the past week due to warm temperatures and rain. It's probably a good sign for your winter hopes, as long as warmth goes north more than east. Pebble Beach golf this weekend faces prospects of local hail showers, could be an interesting watch for weather rather than golf. On the other hand it was record warm in BC around this date in 1998 too. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cyg Posted January 31, 2024 Share Posted January 31, 2024 Some mood wintery mix while I was walking before. Had a little sleet roll through at the beginning of my walk with a snow shower on the tail end. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you want to build an island 150 miles or so SE of here you can probably enjoy it every time we have strong NW wind CAA in the winter. That’s been rare though. 4 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So it can happen (without polar night). It is also very cloudy out west recently, we got a few minutes of sun yesterday, first time in weeks. I blame Pacific Ocean (cause of all our problems). It has been one of the main culprits of our recent lousy winters. Wish we could drain it like a swimming pool. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LongBeachSurfFreak Posted January 31, 2024 Share Posted January 31, 2024 Had some ice on my car the way into work from lynbrook. So it was either melted snow that froze or freezing drizzle. Currently on the uws everything just wet. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gravitylover Posted January 31, 2024 Share Posted January 31, 2024 It's been flurrying for hours, at least since 2am, and there's a nice coating on everything. It looks nice. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agree. I'll take a dozen of minor events rather than just one blockbuster storm and that's it for the season. Just enough to look pretty outside but doesn't disrupt travel. Best of both worlds, minus the brine and road salt. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MANDA Posted January 31, 2024 Share Posted January 31, 2024 .20" snowfall here overnight into this morning. Looks pretty. Nickle and dime events and I still am not at 12" for the season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looks like the sun won't come out until Friday afternoon now. Plain cloudy or plain rainy days are just awful, if we just had light snow all day and even if we just a light coating on everything, it'd be wonderful.

Yep, I can do without the plain cloudy days and the plain rainy days, if we just had light snow every other day and a light coating on everything, it would be a lot more cheerful around here.
