I'd love a good strait effect event. It's been a while since we've had ine locally.

Wow, that's considerably less for us northerners.

January 2021 weather observations for the PNW
Parksvillewx replied to MossMan's topic in West of the Rockies
Campbell River (35k population) usually scores the most I would say. They're quite close to the mainland and not really influenced by the ocean like the rest of V.I. The east side of the island from Duncan to Courtenay can get heavy strait effect snow during strong outflow situations. Hasn't happened here in a few years though. -

This band of strait effect snow is just parked here dumping. Haven't seen snowfall rates like this here in a while. -

Hoping some strait effect sets up here. Looks like Duncan to Nanaimo is in the ideal spot for it though. -

Parksvillewx replied to Requiem's topic in West of the Rockies
I have a feeling somewhere along East VI is going to get taken to pound town with some strait effect snow. Nanaimo north would be my guess. -

Good ol' 37F rain here. Heading up to Mount Washington for some snowshoeing this evening, that'll give me my much needed snow fix. -
