Vancouver tends to have very mild winters and not much snow to speak of. and because it has a lack of artic air, cause the rocky Mt. block it, and that its ocean bound, AKA Island, its the warmest city in Canada. Very wet and foggy, rains way too much, seems it'd never stop.
While Caldary is almost the oppsite,
Calgary has very very cold winter, long winters too. a Praire-steppe type climate, means, lats of sunny weater, even in winter, and most rainfall is in the summer, very windy, for theres nothing to block it. There's often a Chinook (a warm, dry wind that blows at intervals down the eastern slopes of the Rocky Mountains)that changes the temperature intsently, almost 30 degrees at a time. in winter cause rapid snow melting.
