    No way mang. It's supposed to only barely hit low 30's into next week and night time will be in the teens and low 20's. Going to be Frozen Death Ice on the side streets well into next week.

    only see 2-4 inches. Windy conditions will develop late Friday
    night into Saturday with north winds 15 to 30 mph and gusts to
    40 mph with local blowing snow possible. Temperatures late
    Friday night through Saturday will fall through the 20s.

    * WHERE...Seattle, Everett, Tacoma, Bremerton, Bellevue, North
    Bend, Redmond, and Kent.

    Remember that well, lived in lovely Shelton and was out of school for over a week.

    You're a total wuss. I went out to start my k-5 once in Utah back in 2001 and it was minus 25 with no wind chill.


    I just wore sweatpants and a sweatshirt. Fuck off.

    The fact that you remember this shows what a memorable week you must've had with your great grandchildren.

    Tis the season where everybody is from the South Pole and you don't know cold.

    In 5 months everybody is from Phoenix and you don't know what hot it.

    Fuck off.

    I am from Park City, UT in real life. It’s cold; they’ve hosted the Winter Olympics even.

    EMFA!!

    Damn, when is that from? 85' is the last time it snowed that I know of. It's gotta be a ton of hail or something.

    T's and P's guys. It's 63 and sunny out right now. Winter is rough.

    11* here this morning, but the notable thing when I drug myself out at the crack of dawn was my 150 gallon,heated, rubbermade water tank was on fire. The heater worked too hard I guess. The horses were more thirsty and pissed than cold.

    It can be, because it's not water. You can't get water on water to make other, because it's just more water. Anything not water can get water on it, however, thus wetting it.

    Bitch.
    Caballos eh? Do you live in Enumclaw by chance?

    the storm of, what, 1992? I went in to Kane Hall (you know Yella, the building behind which I got my ass handed to me by a bunch of Husky ruffians who caused my twisted allegiances) to take a logic exam. Intermediate logic in the UW philo dept was a bitch for us non-comp sci / no math guysms btw) Anyhoo, fucking thing was like 3 hours long.

    On my way in to "the U" that morning, the one in Seattle, they were yammering about this snow storm on the radio. By then, I was old enuff to scoff at weathermen and their sill predictions. There was slush on my windshield, and I was like, "typical fucking Seattle. this ain't snow bitch!"

    There was not a flake of snow on the ground when I went in for the exam. It was wet af. I came out 3 hours later, and I shit you not, it's almost up to my fucking knees in Red Square.

    Go to the wife's (then girlfriend's) apt. on lower Queen Anne, thinking I'll hang out for a bit. Wound up being stuck there for days.

    Does anyone remember that one? I-5 was like something out of a dystopian movie. It was covered white and I didn't see asphalt anywhere for close to 10 days. It snowed like a mother fucker and then we had a long ass cold snap. I-5 was littered with abandoned cars from Tacoma to Everett. People just pulling over, getting out and leaving their cars all over the freeway.

    Worst I've seen it around here. Or anywhere.

    I wasn't in Seattle proper for it, but winter of '92 was a good one.
