Default weather issues in Vancouver

has any other winter Olympic city has as many issues with the weather as Vancouver is right now? i saw on CTV news that Vancouver is the warmest city to ever be awarded the winter games (average yearly temperatures), and everyone and their dog knows that it rains constantly in that region. it's making me question why they were even awarded the games when you see the lengths they have to go to in getting snow on Cyprus, and the downhill stuff may be delayed indefinitely with the rain and fog on Whistler

i'll be very disappointed if these issues really impact the games, we already have a black mark as a host nation with an athlete dying on a brand new luge track
