It seems to always be there when I want snow, but never seems to stop the rain. Hmmm.<br /><br />I've been telling my kids all week not to listen to the news -- they get too excited and hopeful that they will be able to watch snow fall.athoshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00014068100840350220noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7478606652950905956.post-82451976274797043932009-12-13T15:00:04.268-08:002009-12-13T15:00:04.268-08:00snowing and sticking in Olympia, South Capitol Nei...snowing and sticking in Olympia, South Capitol NeighborhoodAndrew Poultridgehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14189261528779668787noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7478606652950905956.post-68651197412075392082009-12-13T14:35:34.453-08:002009-12-13T14:35:34.453-08:00Major snow shadow currently happening over the Sea...Major snow shadow currently happening over the Seattle/North Bellevue/Redmond area.

As a skier I have developed a constant need to know what's going to happen with the weather and your site is a great resource.<br /><br />It's been a while since we've had any precipitation, and I'm wondering if the incoming precipitation is going to make for good skiing conditions this week, or if it's going to get too warm for most of our ski areas. It would be awesome if you could touch on this at some point!Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04920726202514564934noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7478606652950905956.post-91608450767452306752009-12-12T13:32:03.373-08:002009-12-12T13:32:03.373-08:00Thanks Cliff,

We also have plenty of steep hills that would be tricky even with good gear.<br /><br />I grew up in northern New Jersey, where municipalities WERE ready and able to remove snow and keep roads clear. Here, not so much. <br /><br />Be careful about venturing out here if we do get snow... nobodoy knows how to drive in it, and the SUV folk especially seem to believe that they are invincible. They haven't learned that going fast doesn't mean stopping fast!Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01072360532996088504noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7478606652950905956.post-74226011239346600972009-12-12T11:19:31.502-08:002009-12-12T11:19:31.502-08:00A voice of reason that can be heard over the din o...A voice of reason that can be heard over the din of weather-scarers... thanks Cliff!Wendy the grad researcherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07583982514891213615noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7478606652950905956.post-45498390263291120782009-12-12T10:35:12.954-08:002009-12-12T10:35:12.954-08:00Loved this blog Cliff.

Sigh.<br /><br />I don't get excited anymore by the word "snow"... I'm just laying low & waiting. Hoping it will happen. The sled is in the garage for my 3 & 1/2 year old. I bought a snow shovel - just in case (since I'm a new Seattle resident, it seemed a good idea to at least have one). My pantry is always generally full (did I mention I have a 3 & 1/2 yr old?). I drive a Subaru. Guess I'm about as prepared as I can be.<br /><br />Having lived in Buffalo NY & Harrisburg PA, I can say that we are far less "ready" for real snow here. But that's ok, b/c we don't get "real snow" do we?<br /><br />;-)Cheryl R.https://www.blogger.com/profile/06725016421225923344noreply@blogger.com
