My house looked like this one winter..
The tree in the front yard is gone, wet snow another winter split it....
......Westy....
LOL Those Margarita's can come up from behind and go POW!!
Looks like your having your battle with weather too!! Water can be just as frightening as snow in the right circumstances.
Yeah, and I have kind of a low tolerance for alcohol, so one or 2 drinks and I'm good to go.
Cheri what makes our winter weather storm here even worse is the wind!! Gaaawd it freezes your face in about 10 seconds flat!!
Westy is about to inherit my weather woes if the weather channel folk are telling the truth!!
Okay, I call your little snow with eighteen inches here. LOL
.....Westy....
I think you need to make a run to the grocery for milk, bread and toilet paper like the rest of us, Westy. LOL
.....Westy.....
Oh that's a good spot then. Being only 400 feet above sea level usually does away with any lasting type of snow.

... Minor Tidal Overflow May Occur Along Some Of The Low Lying Areas Of Puget Sound Near The Times Of High Tide Sunday And Monday...
At Seattle A High Tide Of About 12.5 Ft Is Expect To Occur Around 500 AM Sunday And A High Tide Of 13.1 Ft Is Expected Around 545 AM Monday... However Due To Low Pressure The Tidal Anomaly Has Been Running Close To One Foot Above Normal. Thus A High Tide Of 13.4 To 14.1 Ft Could Occur Around Puget Sound Sunday And Monday Causing Minor Tidal Overflow.
......Westy......
Actually we are getting arctic air coming down from the Yukon and it is meeting up with the high pressure system from Washington and voila, we have cooooold snow. Northern B.C. is in an absolute deep freeze.
ROFL I hate to admit it, but that didn't make a lick of sense to me. So do you have high tide or low tide? Sorry, I'm blonde!!
