They’re calling for 3-5 in my area, which is a crazy amount for here.

I’m looking forward to that personally, gonna be fun to watch with my cars safely not on the street.

Weather says none, but that’s normal. The pass has closed a few times going south which is also, so it’s hitting mountains and hills around us.

The thing with Seattle weather though, it could completely miss us and we just get a bit of rain. Seems like that happed a couple times last year, big storm predictions and then nothing. Or my memory is faulty (which it is).

The mountain ranges to the west and east are a big reasons forecasts can be all over the place.

I just traded my RWD Fiat 124 convertible in on an AWD Mazda CX-30.

Add that I also ordered a cheap electric snowblower, and I can almost guarantee there will be no significant snow in Seattle this weekend.

5107

Just remember that AWD can help you get moving in icy conditions, but it does jack squat for stopping.

Lovely vehicle, what color?

Polymetal gray. Really love the car. Drives like a car vs the truck-like feel of larger SUVs, and the audio system is amazing.

Not my actual car (need to take some pics!) but pretty much identical:

Ah nice color indeed, and Mazda has kept the front grill looking good.

Cars are a like paintings. People like what they like.

Nothing up here in Everett/Bothell, but snowing south of Seattle I hear.

5115

It’s in Seattle proper now. The Seattle subreddit is going bananas.

5116

The wife is from Everett. I’ll tell her.

It keeps threatening to snow in Portland, but failing to. I’ll see a rain drop (which there aren’t many of) that looks a little thicker and snowier than the others, but it’s not followed up by more.

EDIT: well I was wrong, it’s all frozen rain and now there is a layer of ice on everything. Actual snow would be a welcome break.

It’s an inverted Aston Martin grille, and still works to my eye.

5119

It’s converted to snow by me. But not the big fluffy flakes. The hard small ones.

That also melt almost instantly on the ground. But its still just above freezing, so it takes a while for the ground to cool off. I’m guessing it starts to accumulate after dark.
