![]() 1971 was the snowiest year in Vancouver (1937-present) history. Over 240cm(94in) fell, with 122cm(48in) falling in January alone. Out of that total, ~100cm(40in) fell in just a five day period. Peak snow depth reached a record breaking 61cm. Keep in mind, the Vancouver station is situated on the coastline at sea level. Inland and higher elevations received even more snow; that year, 335cm(132in) fell in Burnaby, just to the east of Vancouver. |

Still an E- just like normal Vancouver. Find the driest year ever and maybe itβll go up to a D.

E+, boy that's horrific. The plus is for the precipitation pattern.

Wow, that's an awesome year anywhere! A- in which the minus is for snow not being spread out enough and too much rain. (Winter is a little warm, but I won't take off for that because the snowfall looks high enough in December and January to more than compensate for it).

C, by maritime standards. Cold and snowy winters, but summers are much too warm. Precipitation is nice. How is it by inland standards? |

E+, boy that's horrific. The plus is for the precipitation pattern. Even the warmest year on record would probably still be a D in your books.  |

I was not expecting any A's. |

C- Too much rain with the snow. That was a pretty dry spring and summer though...  |

D+, the summer looks OK-ish apart from June but there's still too much blah cold rain in the autumn/winter even with all that snow |

Wet snow is nasty and June is even worse; D- Most of the snow that fell in January was actually quite dry. Temps hovered around -6C for the most part: bit.ly/2qfcOpm |

C-
Winters get solid snowfall, but too much warmth and rain. The rest of the year is weak, and summer especially is pathetically cool and dry.

Automatic F for the record high being below 30'C, but I do respect that snowfall figure.
