It won't. I'm not even mad at this point. I'm honestly impressed. If it wasn't for that 10 day stretch last winter our snowless stretch would be over a year now. It's honestly really impressive how we just can't get a good winter here anymore since 2021. Prior to that we'd get an occasional poor winter but we always had average ones. Now we struggle to get 50% of our average snowfall and struggle to get a month below normal. This winter is just impressive on how it finds new ways to let us down.

I’m sure we have some old photos buried at my mom’s house. Couldn’t find them last time we looked though. I measured a 38” max depth here. I know people in Victoria that said they had over 4 feet on the ground but it was hard to measure with the blowing and drifting. I remember seeing some photos from Colwood and Langford area where people’s garage doors where almost totally drifted in

Just an incredible event!

Euro has 2 distinct pieces of energy that does not phase until it's in the Great Lakes. Drops significant snow in MN and parts of the Dakota's, before eventually becoming a nor'easter. Followed by a lot of cold. Obviously those of us in Iowa and NE really hope this changes in future runs.

Stole some photos from the internet in memory of the blizzard of 96 on southern Vancouver island
