More great "Springtime" weather on the way...

Fotze's sarcasm aside, it looks like there's now some snow mixed with the rain. Apparently we've had 13mm of rain so far; which could have been 13cm of snow.

I'm just glad the drive into work wasn't a big cluster fata.

Aaaand...it's back.

Who's up for another 15-20cm tonight?

[Top Shelf]

There has to be something wrong, I can't remember crazy weather like this ever. Global warming? Apocalypse?

[SpitFire40]

Now it says 20-30cm... WTFFFF

This weather really isn't helping my golf game much.

[SpitFire40]

It probably won't ammount to much... I'd be suprised if we see 3 cm of snow.

[FireFly]

It's raining right now... lame.

Any snow that might come will fall at night when the temps drop. The ground is also warm enough that anything that hits the road will melt.

Mine neither. Did play around at Maple Ridge yesterday. Mind you it was on temporary greens.

We should all keep in mind the wacky weather we had in the spring of 2004.

I do remember it snowing quite a bit in May during the Sharks series.

no it was. I seem to remember a lot of snowfall on gameday during '04. It would be nice one day, then snowing the next...and that went back and forth for most of the spring. No one noticed because they were all inside watching hockey.

I tried to find a day by day temperature and precipitation chart from 2004, but to my surprise I don't think that info is posted on the internet. It's all just 'normals' (whatever that means in this city) and average rain/snow fall. Maybe I should email Mr. Spence.

[KevanGuy]

Well lets all hope the temp stays just above freezing like last night or we could be in for some fun...
