I had to use a team of mules to make it out of my driveway......

What a fucking joke these last two days have been. Here's what happened in January 1834 at Fort Nisqually.

Tuesday 14
Sent off five men in a boat to Fort Langley for some supplies and for the accounts
of that place for Outfit 1833. I would have gone myself had I a proper person
to leave in charge here. The rest of the men employed sawing and roofing the
dwelling house. Snowed heavily in the afternoon.
 
Wednesday 15 Two men sawing, two cutting firewood & two sick. Weather frosty, snowed heavily
during the night. Traded 15 Made Beaver.
 
Thursday 16 The men employed as yesterday. Snowed much during last night and this day. No
trade.
 
Friday 17 Had the last of the covering of the Big House put on. Owing to the badness of our
saw, and sawyers, we make but slow progress at cutting boards, as indeed we
have done all along at every kind of work owing to the incapacity of our
people. Those not employed at the covering of the house, were occupied at cutting
and hauling home firewood. Weather very cold.
 
Saturday 18   The people all employed at cutting and bringing home firewood. The weather continues very cold, and there is about two
feet deep of snow on the ground.

 
Sunday 19 Weather as yesterday.
 
Monday 20   All hands employed squaring logs for Bastions, and hauling the same home with Oxen. The people are such bad squarers
that a great part of this work already done is useless. Weather still frosty
 
Tuesday 21 The people employed as yesterday. Weather rather milder than for some days
past, but no thaw. Little doing in the way of trade.
 
Wednesday 22 The people employed as last stated, viz. squaring and hauling home oak logs for Bastions. Weather
still cold and the snow undiminished.

We'd be eating each other if we had 2+ feet of snow. 1" cancels flights

We'll see. I'm almost certain that Jason Voorhees will need that chainsaw before you do.

Epic November Storm? Nope. Snowpocalypse on Monday & Tuesday of this week? Nope. Starting to see a pattern

Pretty sad here at the moment (on southeastern edge of Eatonville). Snowing with about 1/4" so far. Picking up in intensity and wind has also picked up. Definitely an altitude thing. Nothing doing when I left Spanaway about 45 minutes ago.

Bellevue Transit Center had some serious wind gusts about 5pm.
Plow trucks roaming about.
Chain crews getting ready to deploy to the Transit Centers.

Radio said snow at JBLM at that time.

I'll peek out the window at 0340 to see if I want to go in early.
30-foot coach on cable chains and no snow is not a fun drive.

I went out about 12:30a in my truck just to see what the conditions were like, it was still pretty cold, but I made it up the steep hills around here just fine in 2wd... Now when it warmed up and got slick, not sure, but that's ok, working from home today.

Snowing in Enumclaw at the moment. Been freezing rain most of the day and last night.
At 4 am when I left for work in Renton the roads were GTG. but ice was building on the cars. Left work at 1130 and had decent roads for most of the trip with slush on ice in Maple Valley @ 4 Corners. Road cleared up into Black Diamond and the rest of the way home. Came home to 1/4 inch sheet ice on everything. Fixing to go move the travel trailer since its parked under a tress that is getting pretty heavy with ice on the branches.

It's not terrible. People mostly keep to themselves and after years of sub-par Internet, 1Gbps Fiber is coming soon. They've been digging up yards for the last week or so.

Last night was a mess in Snohomish County. Wet snow caused some early issues in a number of places but it just rained along Hwy 2 out to Gold Bar, right around 2am it got just cold enough for it to freeze. Just in time for the bars to close. Hwy 2 and 522 became skating rinks. Not enough state troopers to go around and several county fire rigs were involved in collisions. Warmed up enough to thaw the roadways around 4am and then promptly refroze around 5-6am.

Definitely some unusual ice conditions for Western WA.

Likely a matter of perspective. Having grown up in Spokane and spending lots of time in Idaho and Utah, I think it almost never snows or freezes here.

2 ft of snow in Tacoma? That doesn't happen anymore... definitely has to be global warming.

Other than a dusting and some ice this morning, we were pretty tame. I was driving back from the South today and stopped in Seatac on my way north and they got a good 4 inches out there. Back up here in south snoco, nothing.
