Surprise snowfall at Prince Rupert - Boxing Day 1978 / Brian Hammond, meteorologist.: En57-44/79-001E-PDF

"On Christmas Day 1978 a low pressure area developed in the eastern Pacific. The low deepened quickly and tracked rapidly eastward dumping 16 cm of snow on Prince Rupert. The low development was generally not predicted well by the numerical models ... an attempt is made here to document the low development."
