It's snowing outside my office right now! The evening commute will not be fun....
We have had a lot of challenging weather here in Seattle for the past few months...quite unlike our famous mild maritime climate. November had record breaking rain fall and flooding, and after the Seattle Seahawks vs the Green Bay Packers game a sudden snow storm caught the commuters and game goers in a 6 hour "ice rink" commute home. In December, we had windstorm that toppled so many trees causing "The Great Seattle Blackout" 10 days before Christmas and over a million homes lost power in Puget Sound, many for day, and as long as 8. Yesterday while driving I was caught between Belltown and Lower Queen Anne when wind gusts started pushing my car around, so I went to Alki to take photos of the wind waves on the south side of Alki looking towards Brace Point....
A friend who just started working at Microsoft last week just called me to tell me she is stuck in the Microsoft parking lot, and has decided to wait for the traffic to clear before she tries to drive home tonight...Patti tells me that there is about 3 inches of snow now.....
I hope everyone gets home Okay.....
We are supposed to have clear sunny skies soon....
Updated for 7:10 PM....still snowing....
This is what I came to when leaving to drive home...
The trip home passing Trader Joe's...
