Sunshine but Cool

The sun was out today and the winds subsided making for a cool but pleasant day and a high of -4 C. It sure was a change from Monday when we seen very strong winds, numerous power outages throughout the day and mostly cloudy skies but it remained dry. Today's low was -10 C making it the coldest of the season although tonight is looking to be colder.

We are expecting sunny skies tomorrow with increasing clouds and a chance of late flurries with an excellent chance of snow on Thursday and highs struggling to make it near freezing.

Dry but Chilly

Although it hasn't been that cold in Chilliwack we have had high windchills making it feel uncomfortably cold. Friday night and into Saturday Vancouver got hit with a significant snowfall, as much 15 centimeters in some areas. Here we got nothing but this morning there were some flurries with moderate winds. There wasn't much evidence of the white stuff in Sardis but in Chilliwack there was some on the side of the roads and trace amounts on the grass.

The cold is expected to continue until Thursday when temperatures rise above freezing with snow possibly changing to rain. Tuesday and Wednesday are looking like the coldest with forecast lows near -10 C.

As of November 13th we have not yet had a frost this fall. Although next week is looking like it could happen as we are expecting highs at around 5 or 6C with lows near +1C. Wouldn't be surprised to see some flurries in there like what happened last year around this time.
