Snow in Seattle

Posted at 10:11 AM on December 31, 2008 by Craig Edwards

Here I am in Seattle a week ago. Snow was wet and heavy. Note, there is a road behind me, that never got plowed in the five days I was there. First folks out drive carefully and make ruts in the snow for others. Unfortunately when you encounter two way traffic you end up with a stare-down regarding who gets to use the ruts.

More nasty weather in store for the Pacific Northwest heading into the new year.
