Snowing in Seattle

[wazzledoozle]

In the last 3 hours weve easily got more in Burien than that last snow storm in november.
Here's to no school tomorrow :beer:

[Kalvin00]

most we can realistically get here in nor cali is some flakes

but im keepin my fingers crossed! 😀 any snow is cool snow...

 

[jst0ney]

yeah the snow here is great IMHO but my GF is stuck in traffic right now because of it. Gone > 1 mile in the last hour.

 

[Mackie2k]

Huh?>

Snow sucks up here, all the roads are twisty, people cant drive and DOT doesn't h ave any prepared to keep the roads clear.

2 inches in seattle = 1 foot in Denver.

It sucks.

Well, I do get to work from home, so thats nice.

 

[wazzledoozle]

Whew, just got back from sledding. At least 5 inches now, and still snowin 😀

North Seattle community college, YOU BETTER CLOSE THIS TIME...

Last time I went, they closed the parking lots, and only 4/30 people were in class.

How many times a year does it snow in Seattle?

Once or twice. But usually its a light snow.

Being a Minnesotan now living in Seattle, let me make a few things clear:

1) This is NOT a snow storm. People in the midwest don't even notice 3 inches.
2) People in Seattle already SUCK at driving. It gets 100 times worse when it snows. It's hilarious watching the idiots drive out here. Pushing the gas pedal down more when you're spinning out will NOT make you go faster.

People told me about this, but I still find it incredible. It snows TWO INCHES and everything is cancelled... back home we literally had to go to school when it snowed 2 feet overnight. People in Seattle are generally pretty wussy.

You also have a much larger snow plow fleet to clear, de-ice, and sand the roads. This system tonight seems it caught our DOT completely off guard, so the freeways are coated in it and will freeze overnight.

Taking that into account, drivers in Seattle still suck, especially in even the slightest adverse weather.

Definitely, lots of them. Burien= Normandy Park's shopping district. Lots of rich, beautiful women 😀

 

[Beev]

Whaaaat? It can't possibly be snowing with all this global warming that's going on...

Oh wait...

Becaussee its not common?

Logic ya?

I live in downtown Seattle and there's no snow here. Black ice has the hills quite slippery, though.

The bad driving is caused by all the Californians and Arizonans who move here and cant't drive in the rain or snow.

You guys are probably as bad as Californian's in the rain. And people here in Colorado in the snow. I came out here to Colorado from California. I expected people to be able to drive in snowy/icy conditions. I was wrong. Seem some stupid moronic stuff.

I also find it funny that my car does better than people in their big SUV's.

Technically, it rains more here than in California, so theoretically, we SHOULD be able to drive better in the rain, and we probably do... Now if you said snow instead of rain, then I'd probably understand.
But as for snow, I don't want to try driving my 2001 toyota corolla... I'll bus 🙂.

I drove my car through the middle of the freaking blizzard we had here before we had any plows come through. It was fine.

😀
I just moved to Vancouver from Central Ontario and I yell that at every stupid driver spinning their wheels trying to make it up the hill beside my house.

We're getting maybe 10-15cm and the buses shut down on certain roads. Commute time tonight was extra 1 1/2 hours. I miss Ontario snow removal.

 

[Jahee]

Haha... Those bins look like guinness pints...
