Vancouverites react to Metro Vancouver's first 'snowfall' of the season

Vancouver’s first snowfall of the season was… anti-climactic, to say the least.
Accumulation varied across parts of the Lower Mainland and despite the sub-zero temperatures, there really wasn’t as much snow as residents were expecting.
But even if there wasn’t enough snow for a “true Canadian winter,” it was still enough to give Vancouverites a laugh.

One snowflake hits the ground in @cityofvancouver and the entire city turns into an episode of “Canada’s Worst Driver”. So glad I work from home. The commute from my bed to my desk is treacherous. #vancouver #snow #canadasworstdriver

Someone bailed on our Super Bowl party yesterday because of the ābad snow stormā we got in Vancouver.

The āterrible conditionsā continue to plague Vancouver. There was a slight covering of snow on the sidewalk this morning. Even the occasional icy patch. Maybe I shouldnāt have worn shorts for my run? (4 consecutive) [508] #AirWreckRuns
