Here is a snap shot of the current conditions. Red Xs are closures due to flooding or mudslides. The blue dots are weather hazards from downed limbs or water getting near the top of the road and may cause a closure soon.

Although you din't say where in the Pacific NW you are, here in Spokane it is still coming and coming and coming. And there's no end in sight!

Take a look at these numbers:
Date Amount
---- -------
15 0.0
16 0.0
17 12.5 <-- 0 first significant snowfall of this winter
18 11.1
19 1.4
20 0.2
21 5.1
22 3.8
23 1.6
24 6.1
25 1.2
26 1.4
27 3.7
28 T
29 8.3
30 0.3
31 1.5
==========
Dec 61.5

That's an all-time record for any month for Spokane and the records go back to 1881! The snowstorm on the 17/18th set a record for a 24 hour snowfall of 19.1 - eclipsing the old record by over 6 inches!

And it snowed today (jan 1) with more coming in the next 7 days!

Right now I'm look for Al Gore!!!!!

I had the same snow Christmas morning .. was a nice thing to wake up to ... sorta!!! But I didn't have a back on my jeep, as I took out my soft windows .. haha ......

it was fun rolling around in the snow christmas night!

My buddy in Cheney, hes shoveling his roof right now ... as with you guys have that next storm comin in a few hours .... I guess a few roofs have already collapsed, Wal Mart In Airway Heights or whatever its called ... is bowing .. yikes!!!

Be safe over there!!!!

We just got a a inches as of now, and its still snowing!
Stay safe over there!!!!

Tonight/Monday morning we are expecting 3 to 7 or 8 inches; Tuesday night/Wed morning another storm. Another storm Thursday night/Friday morning! Problem is the Tues/Wed and Thurs/Fri storms will be a combination of snow at night and rain in the day - temps are expected to reach the mid-30s this week with Wed high expected to be around 39. With this setup, it'll be several rounds of rain/freeze/rain/freeze...... and on and on!!!

It just won't quit! Although we did not have any snow Saturday or Sunday!

We're still visiting relatives in Priest River... I say "Bring on the snow!" It's snowing as I type.

We were in Spokane Sat. nite for the Chief's game and although the roads aren't bad... every parking lot we drove in was a nightmare!!! Some entrances were like rock crawling on ice boulders. Debated weather I should've disconnected my sway bar!

But yeah... the constant snow - rain - ice - more snow... that sucks. I could do without that.
