mattp Posted December 10, 2002 Posted December 10, 2002 Looks like we're about to take a direct hit. radar loop Quote
Figger_Eight Posted December 10, 2002 Posted December 10, 2002 I guess the larger storms are supposed to arrive this weekend. It might be fun to head to the coast and watch them roll in. Quote
thelawgoddess Posted December 10, 2002 Posted December 10, 2002 at least there's blue sky at crystal. Quote
iain Posted December 10, 2002 Posted December 10, 2002 t-minus 10 minutes until Tex rings in with some freshiez cam bashing. Quote
JoshK Posted December 10, 2002 Posted December 10, 2002 I hope we get a good ol' fashioned big ass wind storm along with these fronts, ala the clinton inaguration storm. Those are awesome, as long as the snow level stays down, that is. Quote
texplorer Posted December 11, 2002 Posted December 11, 2002 Sorry to let you down Ian. A pathetically slow 100 mins today. F'n Freshiez Damn Snow. I hate the rain and snow this time of year. I hope we get alot of sun to ice it up soon. Maybe its aid climbing season. Quote
Off_White Posted December 11, 2002 Posted December 11, 2002 I hope we get a good ol' fashioned big ass wind storm along with these fronts, ala the clinton inaguration storm Yeah, I like my weather a little over the top too, but that one did result in a seven day power outage for me, and after a couple days all that charm goes out of that experience.

AlpineK Posted December 11, 2002 Posted December 11, 2002 I hope we get a good ol' fashioned big ass wind storm along with these fronts, ala the clinton inaguration storm. Those are awesome, as long as the snow level stays down, that is. Fuckin'a man I could make sooooo much money with a a big wind storm. I might not ski, but I'd be raking in the bucks. Quote
MntnrMichael Posted December 11, 2002 Posted December 11, 2002 Check the weather, the NW will be getting hammered for the next week. Ladies and Gentleman...wax those skies! Quote
allthumbs Posted December 11, 2002 Posted December 11, 2002 Ah, as one living on the water, the last thing I want to see is a kick ass wind storm. We don't need wind to have snow do we? Quote
iain Posted December 11, 2002 Posted December 11, 2002 here's a link I enjoy... FRESHIEZ RAWK! (even odot says so) Quote
kman Posted December 11, 2002 Posted December 11, 2002 (edited) I love the snow and all the havoc it creates with the drivers up here. The Vancouver area is a gong show when there is snow on the roads. There's a lot of people up here that can't drive worth shite. Edited December 11, 2002 by kman Quote
CascadeClimber Posted December 11, 2002 Author Posted December 11, 2002 Tim, those freshiez look a little damp at the moment. But that only qualifies it more as a Northwest Winter Scene. Quote
JoshK Posted December 11, 2002 Posted December 11, 2002 Crystal got 15" or so last night, and baker managed nearly 2 feet. Bout fuckin time Quote
