That says nothing about snow for most of Vancouver... Squamish or the BPs getting snow in February is hardly surprising.

Aw frick are you serious. Couldn't the snow wait until AFTER the weekend??? Environment Canada doesn't note any snow whatsoever. The weather warning is coming from The Weather Network and they're notoriously horrible with their weather reports.

I'm going to the states for a car club meet and I was hoping I could do without the winter tires to after. Boo. Here's to spending another hour changing my wheels back to winters.

I decided to stay at my home office today because of the forecast.

It's a winter wonderland down here in White Rock right now and some of the snowflakes look like they're 2 inches in width. It's pretty heavy stuff.

Global warming (probably more correctly termed as climate change) has been causing Vancouver to get more snow, it was bad in 2006/07, eased off slightly last winter, and this year we're being hit even harder.

Mission's under three inches of snow. I just spent an hour changing my tires back to winters. I hated it but made up for it with a fun ride around town. Lots of people abandoned their cars on the streets.
