I heard that the Northwest is going to get slammed with 10-12 inches of snow. Sounds like winter is getting angry.:willy:

Yeah Tones --- but that's "north" of me thank gawd.... we might see 4" or so here in town (Bellevue/Seattle). When the weather turns cold - all that rain we usually get comes down white!

I forget the rain/snow ratio - but think 1/4" of rain turns into 1" of snow... or something like that - so it's really not all that much rain. Our snow is heavy and wet -- not nice dry fluffy powder like Utah and Colorado... There they say 1" of rain is 15" of snow.

Greg, you live in Bellevue? I didn't realize you were that far north! cool I will have to swing by some time:rofl:
Its bloody cold where I am this week -34*c right now, and supposed to be -50 with wind chill tomorrow:omg:

GregWeld 01-17-2012 07:49 PM

I've got to text SW and "order up" some sun for the event! I'm going to shoot myself (or maybe my wife will shoot me) if we don't get some "decent" weather...

Of course - we're making a road trip out of it - and visiting friends in Austin -- going for some of that famous BBQ... and then head home via Santa Fe... and Phoenix. Keeping my fingers crossed!

OMG is right! I was whining about a little snow... but -34* ---- OUCH!

Make sure if you swing up here to get oiled up --- don't want you to turn into the TinMan from Wizard of Oz!

Well -- Winter Wonderland has turned from "kinda pretty" -- to DANGEROUS.... and TREACHEROUS... widespread power outages with 180,000 house out... and the ice is forming on trees and they can't take the weight of that... nor can the wires.

It's a good day for beef stew... :willy: :lol:
