It's coming baby .. meterologists are hyping it up so that usually means that it will be a wimper of a snow storm.
All the banter and discussion on the snow tires thread will get real life test.

Significant snowfall accumulations expected. 
When: Late this afternoon through Wednesday morning for Metro Vancouver and Abbotsford.
Late this afternoon through Wednesday for Fraser Valley east of Abbotsford.
Hazards: Heavy snow. Snow transitioning to rain early Wednesday morning resulting in difficult driving conditions.
Strong southwest wind gusts 40 to 70 km/h may cause snow-covered tree branches to break Wednesday morning.
Remarks: A strong low pressure system is approaching Vancouver Island today. This will bring significant snowfall from late afternoon to early Wednesday morning. Snow will transition to rain or taper off to a few showers or flurries early Wednesday morning for Metro Vancouver and Abbotsford. For Fraser Valley east of Abbotsford, snow will taper off Wednesday evening. Snowfall accumulations will vary across the Lower Mainland. The heaviest snowfall is expected in North Vancouver, Coquitlam, and Maple Ridge, with 10 to 20 cm expected, except 25 cm over higher terrain. For the city of Vancouver, Burnaby, New Westminster, Surrey, Langley, and Abbotsford, 10 to 15 cm of snow is expected. For Richmond and Delta, 5 to 10 cm of snow is expected.
For Chilliwack and Hope, 20 to 25 cm of snow is expected from this evening to Wednesday evening.

Significant = half inch of snow and multiple car accidents.

Already heard on the news on my way into work ... be aware that Port Mann and Alex Fraser might close this afternoon to prevent snow bombs. Every year that this comes up, I think of the gift that keeps on giving ... FFS!! I mean close 2 major bridges because it started snowing ... I don't know where to begin.

Lol. Imagine building a billion dollar bridge in Canada, and making it incapable of handling 1.5cm of snow without causing traffic catastrophe and not being held accountable in some way as the builder, engineer, etc. but if someone doesn't like their sandwich they demand it for free.

Yeah we're pretty pathetic when it comes to snow, but to be fair, the East coast budget for snow removal is massive compared to ours and they simply have so much more experience dealing with it.
