Snowing in Vancouver !!! Woot!

[chris103610]

So it actually started to snow today. and we got about 4CM in South Vancouver

is it snowing where you are? i'm assuming Toronto is a **** show right now!!
I love it when it snows !!!
I would hate to live in Australia right now, Summer time? lol could you imagine a hot Christmas?

anyways, i'm just stoked it's snowing, i just wished our Local government knew what to do when it snows... i think we have ONE snow truck in all of Vancouver lol. are roads are never clear, and it seems like we can't afford salt either?

Which part? I was just in South Van and it's just a little dusting. Vancouver, especially south van has micro pockets. Last year, there was very little snow in some parts of S. Van but the moment you went up a bit (north) you got a good dump.
The forecast is for below zero temps, even going below -8 (before windchill) next week. Driving in Ditchmond is ideal when it snows, not that they get much anyways, cuz it's flat. No hills.

Ya, eh. All the exams on SFU Burnaby campus are canceled . I have friends that are stressing because they want to get them done and over with. Luckily, I finished the day before it started snowing.

We were driving from Surrey to Richmond and we had little slips along the way, alot of cops are out there tonight.

I am near the Royal Columbian Hospital in New West and the snow is trickling down. The yard and side streets are covered with a good dusting but not by much .... Its beautiful.

If it snows much tonight ... good thing it isn't Monday morning rush hour tomorrow.

With -9C overnight and 40 percent chance of flurries in the morning this snow isn't going to be going anywhere. Supposed to be sunny and below zero on Mon/Tue with snow on Weds .... it looks like the white stuff is going to be here for a few days anyways.

I was on Granville tonight and even though it snowed there were lots of people out tonight. Couple of cms stuck on the ground. I love it! We never get snow here. I already got one exam extension due to snow..hopefully monday it will all melt away because I want to be done this semester asap!

lol here is a little tip for you - Canada is the 2nd largest country in the world... when it snows on one side, it doesn't necessarily on the other. We have all of zero snow in downtown. Up north we do.

And don't worry, it will rain tomorrow and you'll be back to normal

We got 5 inches yesterday...temp is -25

Woot

SFU is on a mountain...it snows a bit more then everywhere else, and even a little but of snow can cause huge delays in traffic, and delays in the bus service which most of the students rely on

[dealstime]

snowing in vancouver and it was raining in toronto...global warming I say !! Hands off our snow people of the west

I'm assuming that's a type and should say 40cm of snow. No way an university exam will be cancelled for only 4cm of snow.

Hehehehe... Like jayisthebest88 says, the GVR has lots of hills/mounts. Just a it of snow and they're screwed. Not surprising, though. We get a bit of snow in Ottawa and there's traffic too.

I live in Vernon, BC and we got about 28-30 cm overnight, and the ski hill(silverstar) got 58 cm, its nice that they finally have some snow, it was such a dry beginning of the season, now we get a huge dump of snow.

[Peckerwood]

Temp is now -35 and still dropping



Almost time to go for a walk...like me and the 5 yr old did last night to pick up chinese food
