Title: Re: Winter Storm Post by: MFAWG on January 18, 2012, 11:09:04 AM THEY CLOSED STARBUCKS! WE ARE DECIDEDLY NOT OK!!!!!!!!!!!
Title: Re: Winter Storm Post by: MFAWG on January 18, 2012, 11:17:37 AM DOES THIS LOOK LIKE WE'RE OK TO YOU?
Title: Re: Winter Storm Post by: MFAWG on January 18, 2012, 11:19:36 AM It is pretty bad: Not much here yesterday, but it's been snowing steadily since 11:00 pm last nite, and I've got a good 4 or 5 inches. Some places have over a foot.
Title: Re: Winter Storm Post by: dystopia on January 18, 2012, 04:44:25 PM This storm is supposed to hit us tomorrow, but it'll be rain for us.
Title: Re: Winter Storm Post by: MFAWG on January 18, 2012, 06:09:58 PM It probably isn't much rain, but it's really a mess up here. Now the finger pointing starts as everybody starts whining about the plows, especially in the city. There are 30 plows in the Seattle DOT, and I couldn't even guess how many miles of street. It snowed all night and all day. Figure it out, people!
Title: Re: Winter Storm Post by: MFAWG on January 19, 2012, 06:38:38 AM The good news it that it is now raining, which at my house means there is a thin coat of water to lubricate the sheets of solid ice in the roads!
Title: Re: Winter Storm Post by: MFAWG on January 19, 2012, 03:16:30 PM We are probably deeply screwed here in the heart of the ghetto, and I'm figuring the power will be out sooner rather than later for an extended perion of time too!
It's actually kind of OK at work, but it's messy here with tree bbranches covered with ice and hanging low. I'm keeping an eye on the one the new MFAWGMobile is parked under. I'd move it, but there isn't any REAL good place to move it. Title: Re: Winter Storm Post by: dystopia on January 19, 2012, 03:31:58 PM holy crap! stay safe.
Title: Re: Winter Storm Post by: MFAWG on January 19, 2012, 05:30:54 PM My neighbor was nice enough to let me move the car down the hill to where the front of it is basically in his driveway. It's not completely out of range, but it's alot better than right under that bitch.
Title: Re: Winter Storm Post by: MFAWG on January 20, 2012, 07:30:08 PM FINALLY! We've got a breeze out of the south and raining at 40 degrees or so. I MIGHT be able to get down the hill tomorrow.
