Rain to the West, -12 in Bella Coola

It was a pretty windy and wild day in the Bella Coola Valley.  Snow started through the night and by this morning, several inches were blowing and being driven by wind in all directions.   Most of the day it kept up and dropped what seemed to be 10-15 cm, although hard to tell because of the wind.  Meanwhile west of us 100 km at Bella Bella it warmed up and was freezing rain, then rain tonight while we are at -12 C.  Environment Canada is forecasting well above freezing and rain for the Bella Coola Valley by the morning which should provide the usual interesting dynamics that the weather can provide in the valley.   Grizzly
