Verification of forecast snow amounts over the South Coast mountains, 1979/80 / Vello Puss, meteorologist.: En57-44/80-020E-PDF

"The forecasting of snow amounts in the mountains of British Columbia has always presented certain problems. The most insoluble part of such forecasts is the actual variability in the snowfall amounts over relatively small geographica separations. There have been occasions where the 24-hour snowfall amount has ranged from zero to 50 centimetres within a separation of 50 miles."
