Almost SEVEN FEET. In two weeks. All melting today. Flood watch. Ugh.

Well, spread over two weeks, what are they complaining about? :-)

All kidding aside, that does sound like quite a lot of snow for that area (I've only been there once about 20 years ago or so). Hope it doesn't cause too much damage when it melts.

Even other places that are used to lots of snow got quite a load in December. I was talking with my brother in Colorado and he had mentioned that Silverton (a town high up in the San Juan mountains) got 196 inches in December alone, and my sister told me that they got 83 of those inches in one storm. Even when you are used to lots of snow and prepare for it, that's an overwhelming amount. I can only imagine what headaches it must have caused in the Spokane area where they aren't used to that much.
