Vancouver 2010 Olympics February Weather
Whatcom County, WA - The Olympic organizers in Vancouver, British Columbia are probably looking at the weather we just had over the last two weeks and would love to have more of the same sunshine for February 2010. Over the last couple weeks it’s been sunny and mostly dry, which would certainly bode well for tourism if the Olympics would have the same experience.
Weather in the Northwest is really unpredictable, although during our winters here, we usually get most of our rain. On average we will also get about ten days with snow accumulations on the ground. When we do get snow, it usually only stays overnight or not much longer than a few days, because we are so close to sea level. If you go up into the Cascade mountains and near-by Mount Baker, that’s a totally different story. Because we do get a lot of rain in the winter, our near-by mountains get a lot of snow and have set world records for accumulations over the winter.
February in 2008 has so far been pretty good to us. the best scenario for the Vancouver 2010 Winter Games would be to have a lot of snow on the ground up near Whistler, BC and temperatures from 32F to 40F, and Dry. Well we can only hope and see what happens.
