#2 During the winter the lefties call this Climate Change. During the summer the call it Global Warming. They haven't come up with a tax justifying calamitous name for Fall or Spring yet.

#3 one thing you can count on out here is, that as the storm approaches,at least one seattle tv station will interview ClydeClutchrider, chief tire chain installer for the metro busses and consume 4 minutes trying to get in his way as he slings chains. asking increasingly stupid questions about chains =; how long you been doing this? how long to chains last? how long to do the fleet?

and seattleites cannot get enough.
then they venture out onto hills that have been closed, only to slide and hit something with no idea how that happened.

dumbasses all of them.

#4 It's fun to watch the local news outlets go totally batsh*t crazy when we get a light dusting of snow. I am not kidding - an half-inch is enough to get them into a full frothing frenzy. Sending out reporters to the nearest 'steep hill' to show what a disaster it is.
One year Seattle decided that they were not going to sand or salt the streets. I think they were afaid the salt would get down into Puget Sound (a rather large body of... salt water). The results were, as you would expect, a disaster.

#5 my favorite is when they abandon their cars on the freeways and just start to walk. or just stop in their lane ,turn off the car and sit there.... I've driven on the sidewalks before to get around these ninnys who can drive even when it rains lightly, the term "adult" snowflake really apply's to the people of Seattle, Everett, and Tacoma.

#6 told a native seattleite once during a snowstorm, while at the airport, not to worry about his flight because the ground crew was chaining up the aircraft.
he thanked me and appeared much relieved as he walked away
