This forecast is still changing every few hours. The satellite shot at this moment looks like the bulk of the current system has passed over us and the rest of it might slide to the south. What do you think? Is that just wishful thinking? Chris: Are you sure that’s the last update? This forecast is still changing every few hours.

We also had pea-sized hail today as well. Plus wind. It's been a real mixed bag for us. Cheers! Kat,

This next storm tomorrow will be really interesting. Who knows if it will be 30cm of snow or 30mm of rain. The "rain" you're seeing on the website now though is snow melt, I suspect we'll keep seeing a similar patter of staying around zero through the morning until finally we break out around noon and it thaws out a little.

It's going to be a beautiful sunset though. The sky is just turning color now.
