Looks like I'm gonna see snow out here in the next couple of days, if it continues storming like it is right now, it should be a good one...

I'm about ready to drop the insurance on the Firebirds down to just comprehensive for the winter, because it's obvious they aren't going anywhere for a while.

Geeze you guys! Acting like a little bit o' snow will melt your cars!

This is our front yard as of a few mins ago

We need MORE MORE MORE SNOW!

For what it's worth, Tom has this paranoia that I never drove in the winter before I met him ... he is terrified that I dont know how to drive in the snow! lol

I don't think it will melt them, I just don't like taking my cars out in the rain because I hate having to scrub all the road grime off them. This time of year it's too cold to be out washing cars, so I'd rather them just stay clean for the time being.

It was snowing between highway 18 and Issaquah this morning on my way to work. Only sticking around Preston... the road wasn't slick, though.

People were driving like the clouds were going to open and dump 5 feet of snow at a moments notice, though... I swear, you'd think if they drove any faster than 45 mph their car would burst into flames. Cracked me up.. light traffic, mild rain, and people are driving 45 mph on I-90.

Its 11:01am on Tuesday and there is at least a half inch of snow covering the ground. I love the snow, and I have the day off to enjoy it with my wife and dogs. What a great day! As long as the snow don't stay too long, I'm good to go.

We're at 350 ft in Monroe and it was just snowing out here a few minutes ago. It's been snowing all evening, but it slowed down now and it's cooling off really fast. It's about 30* outside now. It was about 37* all day today. It's gonna be a nasty commute for you folks in the Morning...

I agree with Howard...Beautiful Pictures Eric!

Thanks guys. Pictures aren't the best quality because I was trying out my new camera phone. I have some real nice pictures from last year when it snowed. The sunsets with the snow over there in the winter is just awesome.
