a little rain? give your head a shake bro...clear winter days trump constant rain.

those low temperatures happen at night..when most people are sleeping, they hardly effect most people.

Also remeber that you can't just look at temperatures.....14 below in Calgary is much more comfortable than 14 below in Toronto...-2 in Vancouver is like -10 in Calgary...

As i discovered living in the lower mainland for 4 years is that there are many "myths" about the area and one of them is the great weather...and it isnt so much the rain as its the total and complete lack of sunshine..even in the summer...

Besides no one in Canada has anything to brag about when it comes to weather...but the differences between Southern Alberta and the Lower mainland are very few...
