A snowy day in Lower Mainland BC-January 2024

Have you ever wondered if it snows in the Lower Mainland of BC, Canada? YES, it does! We had 3-4 snowfalls during winter of 2024 between December 2023 - March 2024. Unlike the rest of Canada, the snow usually melts within a couple of days.

Where is the "Lower Mainland"? The Lower Mainland is the same entity as Greater Vancouver and its new brand name, Metro Vancouver. It extends to Langley and Maple Ridge in the east, the North Shore watersheds and Lions Bay in the north, the U.S. border and the Strait of Georgia in the south and west.

So if you're RV'ing in BC to escape most of Canada's messy, cold weather, then it's possible! And you'll still enjoy a bit of the wintery wonderland for a couple of days in relatively mild weather.
