Weather WTF?

I know as a Vancouverite I can't really complain about the weather. Living here, I never have to walk to the grocery store in hip-high snow uphill both ways, like in Winnipeg or Montreal or Edmonton. (Wait, do they have hills in Edmonton?) However, I feel that we should not be getting snow at this point in the year, less than a week away from the official start of spring.

Exhibit One: my view from the sixth floor of the SFU library yesterday:

But at ground level the snow was madness, I tell you: close to THREE CENTIMETRES accumulated by lunch time. The snow was coming down furiously the whole day. Happily, I didn't have to worry too much about getting home, as the campus on Burnaby Mountain allegedly has more snowplows than the City of Vancouver. 

Okay, Mother Nature, if you're reading, can you please stop it with this icy stuff falling from the sky?
