The roads are totally fine, at least all the main ones anyway.

Edit: I should add you need to be a bit cautious for a few icy spots but generally there good.

My boss said they got TEN INCHES of new snow out at his place in NE Maple Ridge (Whonnock Lake), and it was still coming down at an inch or two *per hour*.

Yeah, apparently the eastern fraser valley is just getting raped this morning. I heard on the radio this morning when I woke up, that hwy 1 past 264th (heading east) is a nightmare, with trucks/cars ending up in the ditch

I've stalled my car out a few times trying to get over the ice. I have traction, but it's hard to feel the proper amount of clutch/gas to get up and over some of the taller areas when you park.

I haven't had any trouble with traction on the ice/snow yet though.

I want to drive my family's new CSX! Parents have told the dealership to hold the car for us as there is still a lot of snow/ice in our neighbourhood, and they don't want to scrape the bottom off of the relatively low CSX (when compared to our Odyssey).

Grrrr.

The snow is short lived because I heard on the news that a huge storm is rolling in on Sunday which is going to bring heavy rain.
