Are there places, other than Seattle, that make a total news day out of the possibility of snow?
Are there radio talk shows, other than in Seattle, that take "snow watch" calls from listeners?
Are there people where you work, other than Seattle, who head home at the first sight of a snowflake?
Do buses, in places other than Seattle, chain up when the roads are bare and dry then drive 35mph on the freeway?
The snow that was supposed to start yesterday around 4 am in Seattle was pushed back to mid-day.
This is what it looked like out my window around 3:30 pm...
I could see patches of blue!
The mid-day snow was pushed back to the evening commute.
The evening commute snow was pushed back to 7ish.
It did snow up north and down south, in fact some places really got dumped on but in my little corner it was business as usual.
The snow on the houses down south taunted me...
The snow that was expected around 7ish made an appearance. It continued to snow for a few hours. This is what it looked like out my window this morning...
I'm off to scrape snow off the big rig and head in to work.
On a side note this is the 3rd morning in a row that I've been awake at 3 am without being able to go back to sleep. It's going to be a long day!
We're used to the snow so it's not as big of a deal where we are. Also, it's really flat so people don't have to worry about sliding down mountains here in Michigan.

I'm going to take a pic of one of our Mass storms so you can see what snow is really like.

Maybe you could get a gig as a regular 3 a.m. Snow Watch watcher for the media.
Stay warm!

Yes, yes, and yes. I don't know about the bus wheels. We had a little tiny bit of snow, barely covered the ground, and the weather stations acted like a hurricane was coming.
