Snow, Snow, Seattle Winter Storm Viewpoint

Well - Seattle known for tons of rain, this year it'll be known for the winter from hell. If you have ever been here or driven in the metro area, then you will understand. The city and surrounding areas are dead to travel, icy overpasses, more than a few hills, as well as stupid concrete roadways all contribute. It's been almost a week, we can't drive anywhere. We live up on a huge hill and there is no chance get down and more importantly the ability to get back home. So we are stuck, I cannot believe this situation, being from Russia if this happened there our whole country would die! In Russia it's normal to have ice and snow every winter, just put your winter tires and go, go, go! If every winter from now on gets worse, I cannot see how cities like this will cope, let alone manage them to any degree.

We even got some snow in Las Vegas! First time in 30 years...I understand your pain up there, but over here I'm loving it!

I must agree with you. I'm in Eugene, Oregon. We had 2 inches of Snow and the whole town didn't know what to do. Schools were closed and no one knows how to drive!

I grow up in Northern Arizona. When we had a foot of snow then there was no school. Not like Russia though
