A collective "huh?" was heard in the newsroom when Michael Kuss used the term "Graupel" in his weather report. FYI 'Graupel was first seen in an 1889 weather report and has been whirling around in the meteorology field ever since to describe "pellets of snow" or "soft hail"'

Another collective "huh" moment in the newsroom when Michael Kuss used the term "Virga" in his weather report. FYI "In meteorology, a virga is an observable streak or shaft of precipitation falling from a cloud that evaporates or sublimates before reaching the ground" (wiki)

"Hey, why aren't you guys mentioning the border wait times???" Random snow storm cells are bouncing across the Lower Mainland, causing icy conditions and BIG delays on some routes. (FYI There are no waits at the border)

Reporter @llikemoyd is at Langara College trying to figure out why a suspect may have planted incendiary devices at the school. Incendiary. It's all happening.

@JenColesRadio Hmm lets see... a few illegal left turns, stopping in an area you are not supposed to block, stopping on train tracks (super smart). #DarwinAwards for all!
