Wow that Coquitlam pic. Snow completely melted in my neighbourhood. No shovelling! :buttrock:

I talked to the residents up where i took that photo.

One guy said "We are taking a beating up here. I've been out here since 8AM!"

There are a lot companies based in Vancouver who are successful, but because they work behind the scenes in their respective industries you wouldn't even know it if they were right next door.

I'm kind of glad the rain washed some of the snow away cause once the deep freeze hits, we are would be fucked. And then there are the poo Coquitlam folks who got the dump today.

@NEWS1130: BREAKING: Environment Canada has issued a #SnowfallWarning for Metro Vancouver. 5-10 cm expected. Reduced visibility in heavy snow at times.

Snowing by Riverview

Snowfall warning...

Snowing, and sticking to the roads in in Langley.

Snowing in Coq, not sticking yet

i have to head out that way for work tomorrow. :rukidding:

Apparently it's snowing hard in South Burnaby?

Nothing in North Burnaby :pokerface:

Snowing in East Van and it's sticking on the cars now

YAASS MORE SNOW :)

Just drove from cypress into surrey and it was dumping snow on my whole drive home.

Snow fall warning came out right when it started to snow.. So much of a warning..

it sa fucking blizzard in richmond holy shit

That's on the hill (the plateau). Lived there in '06 (?) during the INSANE snow. City sent a backhoe to dig our street out (after the plows got stuck trying to get in.), seen guys with pick up trucks, 4x4 with chains and a box full of snow get stuck and stay home from work (as well as various mercedes/lexus in front yards/front of houses).

There was 6" near coquitlam center, about 2 feet on the hill that year. I imagine it is similar now, that hill will always look bad during snowfall.

was just raining when i was leaving work (downtown), by the time i got to east van, snow galore

drive safe everybody

Find a big enough parking lot and practice your winter maneuver skills (not hooning).

In Vancouver, the parking lot at Rupert and 1st should be relatively snow laden. It also have a gentle slope so you can practice both up hill and down hill.. (just watch out for stumps left behind by the city). It would be helpful to do a walk around first to see where the curbs / stumps are.

Try the car with ESC off first, then ESC on to see the car's dynamic envelope.

You should get a feel on sliding, sudden and steady braking. Throttle modulation needed to get the car in motion. Practice makes perfect.

The key to good winter driving is to have just enough momentum and plenty of space so you can move without braking or extra gas. Also how to react when the car momentum suddenly swings. That takes practice and the limit is different for each model (like it or not automatics are easier). Winter tires, make that sweet spot, more consistent and easier to find.

My st is covered,time to hoon

dumping where i am in north bby. but at least the plow came... just in time to bury my car but hey they actually came this time!

No drama on the way to work, from south richmond to Oak and 25th area. Light snow in Richmond, wet snow in Vancouver. Lots of people driving slow. I was the stereotypical asshole in the SUV with winter tires passing everyone, though I was only travelling 10km/h over the speed limit, the people slowing everyone else down were accelerating very slowly and driving 10 below the limit.

You realize you can be ticketed for going the "Speed Limit" in bad conditions right?

:lol couldn't have put it better myself.

made it in to work. only king george blvd. has been plowed and nothing else, not even the bus routes, so if you are waiting for transit good luck because i passed at least three stuck on the roads... fail.
