Hmm. Looking outside now (North Seattle) I do see we have indeed accumulated some. I didn't think we would because around 6-7pm it was just doing little flurries, not much at all.

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

Yeah, you're not alone! I loved it last year. Snow reminds me of my childhood, in a good way. In fact, it reminds me of Rush's "Power Windows"!

I feel that if it's gonna be butt-ass cold, the least it could do is snow. Not gonna snow? Then please restore the 50 degrees.

You're absolutely right.

nice pix lxy

so much snow!

whoa it's probably colder in seattle than in mpls now (above freezing today!)

lol look at what lxy did to the sandbox in tribute to our snow:

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.

same series, daytime

<3 snow-dusted monkey puzzle :)

any thread where jaq drops science/crushes fools is A+ by me. i love this thread because i love scrolling past this:

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

yeah it's RAINING here, wtf

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.

ok here goes with the bus to work...at least i get to take pictures

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.

hooray! snow in portland!

ok, start here and browse to the right. Got back from Fremont walk earlier.

ok, not snow related, but taken on the same walk

how far is seattle from a place you can actually ski?

an hour

nice

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++

it's 29 degrees on my porch yiii!

watchin cars get stuck on the hill

Looking forward to buses with chains tomorrow morning...RATATATATATATATATATJIGGLJIGGLJIGGLJIGGLJIGGLJIGGLJIGGLJIGGLJIGGLJIGGLJIGGLJIGGLJIGGL all the way.

still everywhere! woowooh!

still not melting! more on the way woop woop

my job gets a lot more difficult with the snow but i still say BRING IT

I'm working late this week, snow or not.

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.

The cold yesterday totally killed our car dead. ;_; RIP prius battery + electrical system, you had a good run.

snowed again this night & morning A+

sorry about your car, jaq! maybe it will be better once it thaws out?

my coworker said something was frozen in her car and made a terrible noise

still no snow down here

Still in the shop today ;_;

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

It's really snowing up here!

not a flake in the city. it was kinda sunny out even

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.)
