Description
For once, Vancouver was forecast to get snow, and snow arrived! About three to four inches fell overnight and continued on through the morning.
With rain forecast in the afternoon, I knew my best chance would be to set the alarm to go off well before sunrise, so at 5:30 I struggled out of bed and headed out.
I walked over to Gastown, passing a few cars that managed to get stuck in the conditions, although in general there was very little traffic, even for that time in the morning. The snow was still falling in tiny flakes that sting your eyes.
This is Abbott Street in Gastown, taken from Water Street just before 7:00am this morning. With the fine flakes of snow blowing all around in the wind, keeping the front of the lens clear of snow in these conditions was driving me crazy!
