About eight inches total fell last night, and more is still falling right now on Sunday evening. Kian was doing his snowboard school clinics yesterday at the pass, and opted to stay the night up there thinking we'd be able to pick him up sometime today. Unfortunately, with all of last night's snowfall, the DOT closed the pass in both directions early in the morning, and he was ostensibly stuck up there, maybe for days! He was not happy, insisting it was certainly worth risking vehicular wreckage and personal injury to try and get him home tonight.
Fortunately, the ski clinic teachers all needed to come back into Seattle tonight, and the DOT opened the pass just long enough for Kian and his buddies to get back into town tonight, and we picked them up at Issaquah late afternoon.
Meanwhile, four inches is supposed to accumulate by morning, and temperatures will be in the upper 20's overnight. Should be fun driving into work tomorrow morning. Maybe.

It's good to be a school teacher... Remind me that I said that a month from now. Snowing here, too, let it snow, let it snow! The subie handled the wintery conditions like a duck in water. We're looking a making a mountain pass in the next couple of days and wondering if it is passable indeed. Several cases of wine bottles later - Howard is christened as an official American Resident (or as his cousin fondly calls him "American Citizen-elect". How's that radiant heat? And here's to longer days. LOL
