Light snow in Burnaby. It doesn't seem to be sticking, but hopefully people still have their winter tires on, lol.

I bought a cordless snow shovel from Lowes 2 years ago. Came in clutch for this year's snowmageddon.

Every time it warms up past 10 degrees, I consider throwing on my Summers, then the weather does a 180.

Snow was great up on Cypress. There was a guy with his family up in the lots with a 4Runner TRD Pro doing outdoor hot pot with his toddler and wife. Pretty awesome! Even more so that after he packed everything up, he joined the tandem of people doing donuts.

Cool af Dad!

In Bellingham atm. Snowed pretty hard for like 20 minutes. Started after I got back to car at Trader Joe’s. Was sticking, too. Now, nothing. Damn, I love snow. If it’s going to snow, let there be like a foot of it. None of this half baked crap.

And yes, purchased $30 worth of Powerball tickets, lol. If I win the big one everybody on RS gets free gas for a month. EV owners, you outta luck. Okay, for a year. Jackpot must be at 2 billion by now. As a Canadian, can claim taxes back, iirc.

This is crazy. Montreal was like 15 degrees C last few days and we got snow in Vancouver. Global warming is seriously weird.

It was 15-20C in Toronto as well these last few days!

Snow on tree branches but nothing on the roads here in South Van.

Between the drought conditions, the heavy rain and now winter's arrival I might go 9 months without mowing my lawn (last mow was in mid-July). That's crazy.
