Time for a warm fire, a warm beverage and a hot partner.

Its been in the upper 30s and lower 40s during the day here in Seattle lately, with lows just below freezing overnight. And most unusually dry!

Got another foot of snow yesterday. We're over 100 inches for the season and officially have 37 inches on the ground right now. Supposed to clear up tomorrow morning, but should get back to business by the evening. I'll try to get out and take some pictures while it's nice.

Not as much snow in the interior of AK as on your side of the pond, but the temperatures have been quite nice for days now (right when the last coastal storm began). Right now I can see the thermometer outside my house pointing at +28 degrees, which is something amazing

Weather watch for tonight from the NWDS:

No idea how much snow we've gotten since last night, but it's a lot. Across the bay the snowflakes were three inches across at one point. Biggest I saw over here was silver-dollar sized. Turned to rain about 5pm and then stopped. 39F right now.

My back yard.


That's a Nissan Frontier under there somewhere.


I just drank something called an Imperial Extra Double Stout and am off to battle snow!

WOW, lots of snow there tigre! We've had snow most of today, bad wind, lights blinking, and now some rain on and off here. Everyone stay warm.

We hardly have any snow left... I'm at JBER, can you please send some this way? All day we cycled back and forth between rain and snow... with the only constant being wind...

That Double Stout is AWESOME!!! Not sure I could do any battles afterwards except with the sheets!

Beer gives me strength; I'm like Popeye but more awesome.

I'm also wet and tired, but we got both trucks out and the driveway is cleared. Good grief that's a lot of snow out there.

We've had four storms in a row out here, one storm blows through south central and everyone freaks out.

Rep cops won't let me love on you for that. Dammit.

Wish you could send some of that snow this way, since so much of ours melted. We got a little more today, but not enough.
