Not snowing anymore, but so much soft, soft snow still on the ground.

Only the thinnest dusting left down here, but it may snow more through the day.

Sorry it is not flat here. 45 degree angle hill streets = icy sheets of death and destruction.

Two stuck cars and one taxi on the little hill under my window. I woke up to a chorus of "whoa!" as stranded drivers watched a jetta slide down toward guard rail/I-5/Lake Union.

Traffic is moving along fine on 4th Ave and even Washington, though the parking lots look slick.

I'll be walking out to Fremont shortly. I wonder if there will be a Sunday Market. I'll be back with pics.
The nice thing re: freezing temps is that, for once here, it's not a rush to take pictures before it all melts.

This snow is so soft and powdery that it's just been flying around all day even though it isn't actually snowing. Went to downtown Everett today and the view of the mountains from there was A++

SOMEONE PLEASE GO TAKE A PICTURE OF MT RAINIER LIKE RIGHT NOW. I would be at Victor Steinbrueck Park doing this right now if I didn't have a gazillion people dependent on me today.

I drove a zipcar up north yesterday - it was so cool to see the fluffy swirls of snow on the freeway!

Seattle got effeciently shadowed by the Olympic Mtns. this morning.. which I didn't mind, since the commute wasn't pure hell, just slight hell. (Half of Ballard was on my bus, since their express bus didn't show up.)
I am prepared to walk home to Fremont from downtown after work though, if we do get snow. The buses will be delayed big time because they're only allowed to put chains when they get "the call" i.e. it's too late (I think it's union rules in question, but I could be wrong.)
― Gino-Vanellyville (Mackro Mackro), Wednesday, 17 December 2008 20:26 (fifteen years ago) link
I like how all the local news sites re: high 30s temperatures are all ITS A TRAP! (the temps are going to dip back down again this afternoon.. convergence zones u so crazy)
― Gino-Vanellyville (Mackro Mackro), Wednesday, 17 December 2008 20:27 (fifteen years ago) link
I hate it when the damn buses get delayed. Even the last few days I've seen delays just due to more people taking the bus, I guess. I don't have the luxury of walking home tonight.
Hahah. I had to read this a couple of times before I realized you meant something in the inner workings of the car rather than some random item in the back seat that froze and made a terrible noise!

Jaq you can borrow my car while I'm in Denver next week. (Barring a city debilitating 3rd round "snow event"/ Seatac running completely out of de-icer at any price, etc. that keeps me here)
― the higgs, Wednesday, 17 December 2008 21:11 (fifteen years ago) link
Aw, you're a complete doll to offer! I just heard from Mr. Jaq, who has been following up w/ the mechanics - sounds like we will have it back in time for my interviews on Friday (!!!!!WOOT!!!!!), so I think it will be fine.

On a bus
Yeah, Mr. Jaq's didn't show up, and there were two CT flexers jack-knifed across 2nd Ave when he was down at the stop. Things look like they're running okay on 4th Ave through downtown (though not so much on the steep cross streets!).
