I headed toward Seattle this morning, the dire warnings from KIRO-7 still in my head. NPR is talking about Snowmageddon and Snowpocalypse. I called the company president and got a recording advising people to maybe try coming in after 10:00 because of the snow in Belltown. So I turned back.
Looks like the office is closing at 1400 – unless things get worse. I’ve been hearing on the news that temperatures are expected to drop later, and the roads will be icy.
We’re at 5-6 inches so far, and it’s still snowing. I felt a little guilty about taking a snow day this morning… not so much, now.
It’s not supposed to get above freezing the next few days, and we’re supposed to get more snow over the weekend- I think the roads are going to be rough for a while. Hey, more time for me to play WoW and watch movies. Hopefully the power won’t go out…
The news just said Arrrrrrrlington… sorry, it’s not 19 September; ‘Arlington’… got 27.5" of snow! It’s a good thing I turned around before I got to Bellingham!
Eight inches here and no melt occuring. It took me four hours and fifteen minutes to drive home from work last night. My commute is 17 miles. What a friggin’ mess!
I heard that on the way home from Bellingham today. I suppose we’ll get snow up here, but it’s not supposed to be as heavy as down south. I hope. It was 15º when I left the house around 1100. I saw 22º in Bellingham, and it was 18º when I got home a half an hour ago.
Snow flurries expected tomorrow with a high of 29º. It looks like it’s warming up next week, which is good because I’m driving down to Coos Bay on Wednesday afternoon. Should be 34º that day.
