Interesting how large parts of Canada are still snowless in mid-January (southern AB, SK, big chunks of MB and ON and most of NS). Meanwhile Arkansas, Tennessee and Kentucky are almost entirely blanketed.

Beautiful Vancouver pics. I miss the snow

Yes, it seems like Halifax and Vancouver have just experienced a weather juxtaposition. I'm sure it's temporary, though, we be back into it soon enough.

I love seeing snow in Vancouver and Victoria. It's like they're getting their membership renewed.

It's still only an honourary membership.

-11C with a wind chill of -19 and cloudy. Some snow as well. We are definately feeling the effect of the brutal cold from the Western Canada.

Low of -17C (wind chill of -26) last night. Could be our coldest temperature this year.

The warmspot was Solander Island, BC at 10.5C.

The warmest low was Solander Island, BC at 8.0C.

Snow squall warning in effect. I'm at work out near the airport and it's very intense, but I check the security cameras at my house about a 10 minute drive away and the sun is out with no snow lol.

-9C in Moncton at 11 AM, with a windchill of -20. The winds are 41 km/hr, gusting to 51, certainly bracing enough if you are outside.

A benign weather forecast for the upcoming week. Temperatures will be very slightly below normal.

Those Vancouver snow pictures could be on postcards, absolutely beautiful.

Today it is a relatively balmy -5, with some on and off flurries/light snow. Could get up to -3.

Sunday looks quite nice - a high of -2 and sun all day.

Interesting to see Vancouver and Victoria have had way more snow than us in YEG. Looked at shots from my Brothers place up by UBC. Quite a bit.

started snowing in east van around 1 pm, I used transit again, no real problems, it was very quiet on the skytrain back home, barely any people on board from VCC Clark to Lougheed, most stations had no people, and roads looked quiet too, I think many people took the day off again. Sidewalks are not much better today and today they have added slushy bits and some puddles. Very few people here wear appropriate footwear, most are out and about in sneakers with ankle socks or no socks and stepping into a pile of snow and slush must be refreshing.

Forecast calls for sleet on friday. Currently 0c and snowing.

I might have to reevaluate my claim that St. John’s and Quebec City look the best in snowy conditions - all these Vancouver pictures are awesome, thanks for sharing!

I haven’t been outside the past couple days as I don’t do snow or cold weather, lol. Plus I only have running shoes and I don’t want to walk in slush. Downtown in Victoria we probably have about 6 cm give or take. Some pictures the past few days from Colin Smith takes pics from Facebook. Sorry for the large image size, but that’s the way they come. The first one is a scene we don’t see at all some winters, it’s from an area called Panama Flats, a low lying marsh that is normally flooded in the winter, but if we get a few days below zero it freezes, then finally we get outdoor skating!

/\ no Chintz is still there, it’s one block to the right of Moe’s in this picture. This location though used to be local furniture store, connected to Standard Furniture I think.

ah ok

I've never been in Victoria with snow, when I lived in Nanaimo I remember a huge dump of snow, the hills made travel very hard.

Those snowy conditions reminds me of Kitchener Waterloo during a snowstorm, eg Christmas day 2022 snowstorm & mid January 2022. Love it!
(As a child/teenager, I always went for long walks during snowstorms, back then in the woods and fields or the 3 miles to school - my parents had to sign something saying they'd be responsible for my actions if I got lost/kidnapped etc. Kind of wish I had.)

A sunny cold day in Toronto. Tonight I went for a walk along the Junction strip, Dundas West over to Dupont and Lansdowne. Fairly quiet aside from the yuppie restaurants and Food Basics for us poors.
