It's supposed to snow 3 to 6 inches starting tomorrow, then get butt ass cold. It's 55 right now, supposed to be like 11 for a high on Friday. I don't think I'll take any pictures of it.

I want one huge snowstorm. Come on, snow! There were flurries twice today that fizzled out after a few minutes. Such a rip-off.

It's really coming down here, but so far the wind's been pretty quiet (we've had a wind warning in effect for the last day or so). It's very pretty and all, but I hope it doesn't stick around for too long. Is the wind, etc supposed to hit where you are, too, loq?

No wind warnings here over in the 'couve, but possible freeze and ice warnings tonight.

The snow came down pretty thick for about 45 minutes today, and just barely started to stick on the ground before it melted. The sun is nice, though.

It hasn't snowed at all in NE Portland :-(

we've had NO SNOW. None. Zip. We are without snow. Snowless. No powder, no flakes, no flurries, no sleet, no ice, nada.

UPDATE: Snowing downtown at 1:28pm!
Thick, fluffy and beautiful!

Still no snow in NE, and we're at a higher elevation than downtown, I think :-(

Nothing here yet (Seattle). We had a dusting last night that froze over, but I could still drive to work. I'm waiting for the deluge that's predicted for tonight.

It snowed for like 10 minutes, and now it's sunny.

It's been snowing here since last night. We did have a wee break with some sunshine and melting, but it's back to snowing now. There's about 5-7 inches on the ground where I live.

Wait, loquacious, you're in Wankover now? Am I reading that right?

posted by elizard 10 January | 18:13

Yeah, I'm across the bridge in whatever this rather hick-saturated place this is. It's quiet, but I generally just put on my headphones and close my eyes until I'm back in PDX.

Also, in this thread are two of the few comics that explain why I don't eat snow or rain from the sky.

Ahhhh. Wankover, WA. Damn. For a minute there I thought you'd defected to the north ;)

posted by elizard 10 January | 19:47

No, no, but Seattle looks positively delicious if I could find work and shelter up there. Or just stable shelter, God knows I can keep myself busy without work as long as the bills are paid.

Also, it's snowing again. Big huge fat flakes. Yay!
