It's going to be snowing 5 cm tonight ya'll!!! Which sounds so awesome until you realize that is only around 2 inches.
Stupid metric system.
The snow warning issued by the weather service is both dramatic and terrifying:
A STRENGTHENING ARCTIC RIDGE OVER THE BRITISH COLUMBIA INTERIOR IS PUSHING COLD ARCTIC AIR UP AGAINST THE EAST SLOPES OF THE NORTH AND CENTRAL COAST MOUNTAINS. STRONG OUTFLOW WINDS HAVE DEVELOPED THROUGH THE VALLEYS AND INLETS AS THE ARCTIC AIR RUSHES THROUGH THE GAPS TOWARDS THE COAST. AS THE HIGH CONTINUES TO STRENGTHEN WINDS WILL INCREASE AND TEMPERATURES WILL CONTINUE TO FALL RESULTING IN WINDCHILLS IN THE MINUS 20 TO MINUS 30 RANGE. THESE CONDITIONS ARE EXPECTED TO PERSIST FOR SEVERAL DAYS. THE ARCTIC AIR IS MAKING ITS WAY THROUGH THE VALLEYS OF THE SOUTH COAST AND WILL ARRIVE IN THE LOWER MAINLAND BY SUNDAY MORNING. AN INTENSIFYING LOW OVER THE PACIFIC WILL APPROACH WASHINGTON STATE SUNDAY MORNING. THE MOISTURE ASSOCIATED WITH THE LOW WILL INTERACT WITH THE ARCTIC AIR GIVING SIGNIFICANT SNOWFALL FOR MUCH OF THE SOUTH COAST BEGINNING TONIGHT. 10 CM OF SNOW IS EXPECTED FOR THE QUEEN CHARLOTTES AND 20 TO 30 CM OF SNOW IS EXPECTED FOR THE OTHER REGIONS BY SUNDAY EVENING. THE SNOW HAS CHANGED TO RAIN IN THE WEST VANCOUVER ISLAND REGION AND AS A RESULT THE WARNING HAS BEEN ENDED.
OMG!
