Seattle weather - the fun continues!



November 2006 record rainfall for the month.

December we had winds up-to 100 MPH that knocked out power to over 1 Million households.

January last week. Winds up to 135MPH 140K households lose power

Yesterday Snow! 3"-6" in the Seattle Area



This is fairly close to my house...127 cars abandoned over night due to the road conditions. Picture was taken this morning.

Thanks,

SST

SST, I'm just above you in Victoria, B.C. and we got the same storm, sure makes for some interesting driving, and fun if you decide to drive more spiritedly. Cool picture we didn't have anything quite like that just a few cars and vans off the road.

I wish you could send some of that my way. We usually don't get much, but I love snow. Has been in the 60's and 70's here for a while though....

SST,



I guess b\c Seattle is known for the amount of rainfall it gets I always assumed that it also gets a fair amount of snow in the winter. the photo seems to paint a different picture. Is snow uncommon in Seattle? And like A1cntrler said, send it over here to the east coast! I'm dying to go sledding, tubing, skiing....

Seattle tends to get rain. With it's proximity the the Ocean, the air is usually mild and humid...

Jlevin75 - we get maybe 1 or 2 days a year of snow and it's generally just a dusting and it usually is gone by the morning commute. Outline areas will get more snow. 1-3" This year the low temps have kept the snow around. Right now our hi will be 34 today and the next few days about the same. So, the snow and ice will abe on the roads till the weekend.

Kewl! I am missing an ice storm in OKC this weekend. People laughed at me when they found I'd go to Poland in January. Now I have the good weather and they have the cold and ice. :lol:



I am glad I'm not a weather forecaster.

SST check out my new post about ice in washington. Not too much snow here in Oly, but lots of ice now.

You guys better move to Calgary, Alberta Canada cause we have only a little snow left over from 3-4 months ago

XST- a different story up by Edmonton, I had to head up to Vegreville yesterday and managed to sink up truck in a 3 foot snow drift. That was fun to dig out in the -32 C weather they had up there.
