Just did the weekly Silverdale petrol run. Hwy 7 is fine but the side streets are iced up in places pretty good. Expecting to see some bumper cars this morning.
i was warming up my car this morning, and dude with an x-terra and park plates drove up to me and asked if i needed help getting out. Thanks dude! I was ok though and didn't require any assistance. Very grateful for the gesture, i'm glad we still have such kind people around. If you're on RS, thank you again!
I'm in Vancouver and the snow came down hard just after midnight but eased off around 3am so decided to shovel and salt the sidewalk because I was worried about icing when I got up. Surprisingly most of the snow has melted from the sidewalks and the side streets are clean.
Richmond got about 2” of slush. I may or may not have gone out at night to drive like a teenager, but the slush was just too soft and the car gripped like it was dry pavement
There was soo many abandoned vehicles today at the base of westwood plateau. Did they not learn from last year? They live there, but dont have proper tires. It should be mandatory if you live there. I looked at a few of their tires, all season...

The GF and I decided to do some snow driving in the Jeep and noticed tonnes of cars going up. Ended up leading a pack of cars up Westwood as we were creating decent tire lanes up the hill for them to get contact. Worked for most vehicles but a lot of them couldn't make it up. Unfortunately our tow ropes are on the Coast so we couldn't do much to help people get unstuck, but even if we did we wouldn't be able to tow them up the hills anyways as 90% of them had shit tires. To the point even the police and firetrucks were dodging them.

I cant recall, are all emergency vehicles servicing LML running winters?
i remember seeing new west fire trucks running chains, and many years ago VPD police cars with chains. i think ambulance do not run snow tires or chains as i was speaking with a home owner near the west end and they witnessed an ambulance trying to go up a steep hill for like 20mins.

Not all of them. The fire trucks tend to have big chunky tires with auto-chains installed. Depending on ambulance, some may have HD truck A/T tires or snow tires installed. The Pemberton ambulances have Blizzak W965's or Duratracs and the local RCMP detachment has Goodyear snow tires installed.
