Let’s talk snow
It’s snowing here today. This is actually a rare occurrence for this part of Canada. Canada is, btw, the only country in the world that contains all the major ecozones within its borders (yes including desert and rainforest). Anyway this post is about snow, actually predicting snow. According to the Victoria radio station I listen to, they got walloped. Here on Pender, not so much. Why is that? Well snow is one of those strange weather things that is so dependant on external conditions that this is a hard thing to predict. A little wiggle in the storm track, a little change in temperature, big difference. Like when I went into town a few minutes ago, the snow wasn’t sticking to the road (it’s about at sea level), but as I made my way back home it was. Difference? A few feet in elevation.
Okay time to go back to blogging and watching fluffy flakes fall.
