brilac Posted February 9, 2019 Share Posted February 9, 2019 There is a lot of snow on the ground, and it is still snowing. We were supposed to go to San Francisco today, but the flight was cancelled on earlier this week before it started snowing. It doesn't look like we are going anywhere... The snow is packed outside, and thousands are without power. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You may want to check with the airline you are flying with. If you are flying to SeaTac and then to Bellingham, there have been hundreds of flight cancellations and delays out of SeaTac. If you're flying Alaska, they are offering a waiver. I called them the other day to have a refund instead. They even cancelled the flight I was supposed to be on from SFO to Seattle late this evening. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
-Vintage Canuck- Posted February 10, 2019 Share Posted February 10, 2019 Special weather statement for Metro Vancouver: Quote Special weather statement in effect for: City of Vancouver - including Burnaby and New Westminster Metro Vancouver - northeast including Coquitlam and Maple Ridge Metro Vancouver - southeast including Surrey and Langley Metro Vancouver - southwest including Richmond and Delta North Shore - including West Vancouver and North Vancouver In the wake of the winter storm on Friday, a second relatively weaker storm is set to impact the BC south coast on Sunday. With arctic air remains in place over the weekend, the arrival of this storm will potentially bring more snow to the BC south coast. For this event, the current computer guidance suggests that 5 to 10 cm of snow is possible for southern Vancouver Island and lesser amounts expected for the Lower Mainland. However, there remains some uncertainty with the storm track as the system develops offshore on Sunday. A slight deviation of the forecast track will greatly impact the amount of snowfall across southern BC. Please monitor subsequent forecasts for further updates on snowfall amounts. With the ridge of high pressure over the BC interior weakening, outflow winds will begin to ease tonight. As a result, wind warnings are not expected for coastal regions with this event. Please continue to monitor alerts and forecasts issued by Environment Canada. To report severe weather, send an email to BCstorm@canada.ca or tweet reports using #BCStorm. https://weather.gc.ca/warnings/report_e.html?bc42 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A low pressure centre is rapidly deepening over Vancouver Island this afternoon.

Be prepared to adjust your driving with changing road conditions. Rapidly accumulating snow will make travel difficult. If visibility is reduced while driving, slow down, watch for tail lights ahead and be prepared to stop. Please continue to monitor alerts and forecasts issued by Environment Canada.

If it warms up a degree or two, I can see a whole lot falling tonight. Luckily the salt trucks have made passes during the past week with the cold weather, so the street near me seems clear.
