Fremont last summer vs. Fremont after snow yesterday

― donut bitch (donut), Wednesday, 7 January 2004 23:38 (twenty-two years ago)

these are great. yous are the rules.

― stevem (blueski), Wednesday, 7 January 2004 23:40 (twenty-two years ago)

Well anyway, the above pics were yesterday. Today, the same scene is more slushy, dirty, and far far less charming.

― donut bitch (donut), Wednesday, 7 January 2004 23:43 (twenty-two years ago)

Will they ever give that poor woman her espresso?

― Casuistry (Chris P), Wednesday, 7 January 2004 23:46 (twenty-two years ago)

My friend who moved here from Rochester is incredulous that flurries can take out the whole city. He was just standing out on our sidewalk in his slippers going "Geesh! Look at this, noone plowed"

Lyra, your mate would be lost in Buffalo. A mate out there posted pics on his site last Winter just after a snowstorm, where you couldn't see the tops of the mailboxes....or the parked cars.

(BTW, Pretty puppy, too.)

And I still plan to visit Seattle after seeing all those pics! I'm feeling brave.

― Nichole Graham (Nichole Graham), Wednesday, 7 January 2004 23:47 (twenty-two years ago)

well, it only snows once every other year here, so...

― M Matos (M Matos), Wednesday, 7 January 2004 23:52 (twenty-two years ago)

The east coast and midwest people can laugh, but, see, most of the east coast and the midwest don't mostly live in the hills. That's what causes most of the problems in Seattle snow. You need to go uphill and downhill for almost everything in this town.

Well, still, the east coast and midwest people can still laugh, regardless I guess.

― donut bitch (donut), Wednesday, 7 January 2004 23:56 (twenty-two years ago)

DULUTH, MN, laughs at you.

Lyra, our puppies should have a play-date! Does he like to play chase?

Snow yesterday was FABULOUS on the east side - much romping outside in the street where we live. Much snowball throwing. Much me falling on my ass.

― Layna Andersen (Layna Andersen), Thursday, 8 January 2004 00:54 (twenty-two years ago)

I love them pics.

― Ned Raggett (Ned), Thursday, 8 January 2004 01:45 (twenty-two years ago)

great pics indeed, d.b.!

the snow yesterday was the worst in 8 years -- i was actually surprised that like no one plowed into my truck parked on a fairly major thoroughfare, that the buses mostly ran all day, etc.

― yetimike (McGonigal), Thursday, 8 January 2004 02:07 (twenty-two years ago)

WTF was up with the roads today being unplowed? Can't they borrow a plow or two? The ID was the worst, 3" of slush on all the roads. Also, I find it a bit amusing that all the recent weather forecasts have to do 10 minutes of explaining what freezing rain is before proceeding to announce we're getting some tonight.

We had a snowstorm digital photos comparison fest at work. Some people got great ones of cars skidding backwards down the roads around here, and there was one of a toyota smushed into the back of the Real Networks building by a taxi.

― lyra (lyra), Thursday, 8 January 2004 03:42 (twenty-two years ago)

three years pass...

Woohoo! 3" in south Seattle last night! Snow day today!

So sad the other pic links are busted :(

― Jaq (Jaq), Thursday, 11 January 2007 20:10 (nineteen years ago)

beautiful!

― Mary (Mary), Thursday, 11 January 2007 20:25 (nineteen years ago)

I'm the only one at work today. Weird 'cuz there isn't much snow at all on Cap Hill (where I live) or in Pioneer Square (where I work).

Beautiful day, though. I'm leaving early.

― Adam Beales (Pye Poudre), Thursday, 11 January 2007 20:27 (nineteen years ago)

It was hailing and then fluffily snowing all over Beacon Hill and down Yesler to 23rd last night when we were heading to dinner at Thai Tom. Rain in the U District though.

― Jaq (Jaq), Thursday, 11 January 2007 21:13 (nineteen years ago)

you guys seriously stay home because of 3"??
sorry to scoff but im just jealous

― i've dreamt of rubies! (Mandee), Thursday, 11 January 2007 21:23 (nineteen years ago)

That's a dusting!

I haven't had to use a shovel for an entire calendar year -- I'm in the Midwest -- so wtf?

― Andy_K (Andy_K), Thursday, 11 January 2007 21:28 (nineteen years ago)

Sorry it is not flat here. 45 degree angle hill streets = icy sheets of death and destruction. The city buses aren't running down our way today.

― Jaq (Jaq), Thursday, 11 January 2007 21:55 (nineteen years ago)

Also, see above, no plows.

My prof, who lives up in Vancouver, WA, said it was a winter wonderland up there, but although it snowed a bit there was no sign of anything sticking around here -- except the occasional snow-covered car driving by, mysteriously out of place.

― Casuistry (Chris P), Thursday, 11 January 2007 22:26 (nineteen years ago)

Oh no, I moved all those pictures I'd posted up there! a few from that snowstorm are still on my webserver, just moved.

4th ave

newspapers announcing the snow

Declan (my doggie) covered in snow

snowy Declan again

snowy Top Pot, the location of many Seattle FAPs over the years

― lyra (lyra), Thursday, 11 January 2007 23:38 (nineteen years ago)

Also, it took my friend 45 minutes to even get out of a parking garage near Bel Square last night because the traffic was so crap. Insane.

― lyra (lyra), Thursday, 11 January 2007 23:39 (nineteen years ago)

Oh, excellent! Declan is just so cute!!! We had a shot of Morrie, watching that snowfall on 1st Ave (we lived across from Caffe Minnie at the time) up on Flickr:

― Okay, admit it, you play with cat toys (Bimble...), Friday, 12 January 2007 00:17 (nineteen years ago)

Were you marching with a group of protesters about 15 minutes ago? If so, I saw you from my window.

― lxy (lxy), Friday, 12 January 2007 00:21 (nineteen years ago)

No, not at all, you see I'm off work because of the snow in Seattle you see? Ah never mind. Must put on some music soon. Fuck it all.

― Okay, admit it, you play with cat toys (Bimble...), Friday, 12 January 2007 00:23 (nineteen years ago)

Don't you understand? We got Patty Murray on the Defense Senate committee thing now, and she never voted for the war! Unlike that bitch Hillary Clinton. I'm proud to live in Washington state, man.

― Okay, admit it, you play with cat toys (Bimble...), Friday, 12 January 2007 00:25 (nineteen years ago)

Well, they were marching in Seattle, obviously not at work, and there is snow where I am too. So....

Anyway, all y'all keep on doing the good work on the snow day.

And yes, put music on. Good. Yes.

― lxy (lxy), Friday, 12 January 2007 00:27 (nineteen years ago)

the snowflake scene at the end of the first act of the Nutcracker, it's about to start. and then everyone will go out in the lobby and see it snowing. so awesome.

― alpha ville (jergins), Sunday, 14 December 2008 04:20 (seventeen years ago)

jergins, have you submitted to the nutcracker yet?

― very quotatious (tehresa), Sunday, 14 December 2008 04:23 (seventeen years ago)

also a gis for nutcracker yields marketing promo shots of snowflakes dance that are all essentially the same production. did no one ever think beyond blue backdrop for that scene?

― very quotatious (tehresa), Sunday, 14 December 2008 04:27 (seventeen years ago)

― Lingbert, Sunday, 14 December 2008 04:49 (seventeen years ago)

Fremont getting snowlove, though far from snowblind

I know it's corny, but I get ubergiddy when it snows here, especially on a weekend

I was really hoping to avoid another snowstorm this week. My divorce is being finalized on Tuesday and I really don’t want that delayed and we’re going to Ohio Wednesday night for a hockey tournament so I really want to be able to leave.

Still snowing!!

― Canon in Deez (silby), Saturday, 13 February 2021 22:38 (five years ago)

Here in Portland we got hit with snow, sleet and freezing rain in alternating waves. There's a good third of an inch of ice on everything outside my window, but we've kept our electricity so far. Might be more ice coming tonight. I fucking hate ice storms.

Snow!

About to drive in to work and school is not canceled but it's snowing pretty thickly so I'm confused.

― Lily Dale, Friday, 13 March 2026 14:35 (three months ago)

In the 50s (and steady rain) here in Portland. Not used to seeing such a big temp difference between here and Seattle. Hope your drive went OK!

It's still coming down in south King county - unexpected!

Finally shifted to rain downtown.

Still snowing in Kent. One of my neighbor's trees fell over - maybe 20 ft tall 8" diameter fir.

― Jaq, Friday, 13 March 2026 23:20 (three months ago)

Still snowing in Cap Hill. It was wintry mix lower down, but turned back into snow as I drove up the hill.

― Lily Dale, Saturday, 14 March 2026 00:12 (three months ago)

ok see y'all back here in four years
