It never ceases to amaze me that we get a couple of inches of snow and this region simply shuts down.
Sure, there's ice and hills and such, but it really shouldn't be taking people four hours to get from Tacoma to SeaTac.
Needless to say, school is canceled. In fact, I doubt there's a school open between here and the Canadian border.
I'm sitting in the parlour in my robe and fuzzy slippers. Coffee's brewing.

Cars never are equipped with snow tires, and people don't have chains.
It's not like people are stupid. In cities like Chicago and states like Montana, we are prepared. We have the tools necessary to travel in the snow and ice.
Monday night, fully-loaded busses were sliding off the road.
