Winter storm warning for
Metro Vancouver continued http://weatheroffice.gc.ca/warnings/report_e.html?bc42
Snowfall amounts from 5 to 15 cm are expected to be mixed with freezing rain tonight and Friday morning.
Southeast winds of 90 km/h will develop Friday morning over the Central Coast - coastal sections.
Northeast outflow winds of 100 km/h will develop Friday morning over the North Coast - coastal sections.
This is a warning that dangerous winter weather conditions are expected or occurring in these regions. Monitor weather conditions..Listen for updated statements.
An Arctic ridge of high pressure over the British Columbia interior is producing strong outflow winds through coastal valleys and inlets. The strong outflow winds in combination with very cold air are producing wind chill values exceeding minus 20 degrees for much of the BC coast with values ranging near minus 35 reported on the north coast. Wind chill values of minus 20 degrees will persist tonight over Central Coast - inland sections, Whistler and Fraser Valley east - including Chilliwack.
A significant winter storm with snow, areas of strong winds and possible freezing rain is expected tonight and Friday. Snow will begin over Haida Gwaii, Central Coast - coastal sections and North Coast - coastal sections tonight where 10 to 15 cm will fall by Friday morning. A further 10 to 20 cm is expected for North Coast - coastal sections on Friday. In addition very strong outflow winds gusting to 90 km/h combined with new snow will create blizzard conditions over North Coast - inland sections tonight through Friday. Strong southeast winds of 90 km/h will develop over North Vancouver Island and the Central Coast - coastal sections early Friday morning.
On Friday there will be a transition to mild and moist Pacific air over the south coast due to a southwesterly flow. A significant snowfall of 5 to 15 cm is expected for most of the south coast. Most areas can expect snow to become mixed with freezing rain as the changeover to rain occurs. A period of extended freezing rain is expected for eastern portions of Metro Vancouver, the Fraser Valley and Howe Sound. Approximately 10 to 20 mm of freezing rain is possible over the Fraser Valley and Howe Sound, however at this time there is some uncertainty in the exact amount.

More wintery weather on the way for BC
On Saturday morning, Vancouverites woke up to their first measurable snowfall of the year. The city saw 2 cm, while other parts of BC saw much more.
And, love it or hate it, there's more wintery weather in store. Three seperate systems will move into BC starting Monday.
"There's not one, not two, but three chances of a decent snowfall in BC, including Vancouver and Victoria," said Rob Davis, a meteorologist at The Weather Network.
The first system will push in on Monday and could bring up to 15 cm of snow to some areas. Vancouver and Victoria won't see that much -- but people there could still get about 5 cm.
On Wednesday, a second system will hit the northwestern United States, and the north end of that storm will hit BC. "By that time, several cities will be below 0°C with a storm on their doorstep," says Davis. "This could mean the potential for quite a bit of snow."
A third system will also move in on Thursday and Friday

yeah thats what i heard too more Snow on the way for Wednesday and Friday.Friday being the most major cold front on the way.

White Christmas? Dream on: Environment Canada says snow less likely over time
TORONTO - Dreaming of a white Christmas may be a holiday tradition, but Canadians are more likely than ever to wake up instead to the dreary brown reality wrought by climate change, Environment Canada said Monday.
The chances of seeing at least two centimetres of snow on the ground on Dec. 25 have been decreasing steadily over the past several decades as the effects of global warming take hold in cities from coast to coast, the agency said.
Senior climatologist David Phillips tabulated the numbers after hearing anecdotal grumbling about the lack of snow come Christmas Day.
By compiling snowfall figures across the country from 1964 to 2009 and tracking averages, he began to see a picture that verified the informal accounts he'd been dismissing for years.
"The one season that truly is not what it used to be is winter," Phillips said in an interview.
"I had this argument with old-timers years ago. They'd say, 'We don't think the winters are what they used to be," and I'd say, 'Nonsense.' But they've been right."
Average snow levels show a marked decrease in the likelihood of a winter wonderland on Christmas Day in nearly all regions of Canada.
In Edmonton, Saskatoon and Quebec City, where a white Christmas was all but a certainty between 1964 and 1982, the probability of a snowbound holiday has fallen sharply between 1991 and 2009.
Quebec City's chances have slipped to 95 per cent, Saskatoon's to 89 per cent and Edmonton to 79 per cent. The steepest drop, however, was in Sarnia, Ont., where the odds of a white Christmas, once three in four, are now less than one in three.
Some northern cities, such as Kenora, Ont., Goose Bay, N.L. and Iqaluit, are still assured of a white Christmas, but remain susceptible to the rising temperatures that are causing problems in other, more southern locales, Phillips said.
Canadian winters are one of the best places to observe the impact of global warming, said Phillips, noting that average temperatures have increased nearly three degrees over the last 64 years. That's what's to blame for the diminished snowfall.
P.J. Partington, climate-change policy analyst with the Pembina Institute, a think tank focused on environmental issues, said the numbers represent a serious problem.
Canada's cultural traditions, which are largely grounded in winter symbols and sports, would be threatened by a long-term reduction in snowfall — to say nothing of the impact on the tourism industry, Partington said.
"There's also a big risk to agriculture and municipal water supply," he said. "For some areas that rely on snow pack for their water, less precipitation in winter means more water stress in summer."
Also Monday, Environment Minister Peter Kent confirmed what had long been suspected: Canada is pulling out of the Kyoto Protocol, the binding climate treaty forged in the late 1990s to which the country was a signatory.
Kent made the announcement one day after marathon climate talks wrapped up in the South African port city of Durban, where nearly 200 countries took key steps towards a new climate treaty by 2015 to replace Kyoto, which expires at the end of next year.
The impact of global warming will likely be more dramatic in the coming years as temperatures continue to rise, and the face of Christmas may be changed for good, Phillips warned.
"We're going to have to dream a little harder, I think, to see the kind of things our parents and our parents absolutely took for granted," he said.
"Maybe we'll all be asking Santa Claus for a white Christmas now."
OMG Windy?
