How much snow?

/

When looking at the current day it never seems to coincide with the alerts for how many cm of snow to expect. Just wondering why that is?

Environment Canada issues alerts and they cover a pretty large area. Therefore, they are more general amounts that folks in your area could see. Our app is forecasting for your exact location and in some cases the app might end up being correct and in other cases, the alert might end up being correct. It’s best to compare between them to see what you might end up with, depending on where the heaviest pockets of snowfall actually fall. It’s also good to compare between these two options and our custom forecast maps as all three are using unique techniques to forecast.

Also our app shows what is to come and not the total for the day. Another important thing to note is that day for the app is sunrise to sunrise. The app is also constantly updating its amounts based on the most recent data and models.
