Mild winter weather in Vancouver has put a damper on this year’s ski season on North Shore mountains. And the latest forecast doesn’t look encouraging: A “Pineapple Express” tropical storm is set to hit the Vancouver area today, and bring with it 40 to 60 millimetres of rain in two days. Up to 90 mm of rain is expected to fall on North Shore mountains. And with Environment Canada forecasting highs of 11 to 12 C and more rain heading into the middle of next week, is this year’s ski season on the local mountains a write-off?
