Snowpocalypse 2012

Remember ages ago this post & this post & this post & don't forget this one

Well it's happened again.  Last week I didn't have to go to work.  Why?

SNOWPOCALYPSE 2012!!!!

So here we go:
1/17/2012 Day 1 - It did't snow at my house until early the next morning, but it did snow in my school district.

1/18/2012 Day 2 - The snow begins
6:30 - my car is the second one from the right

9:00 am our patio railing
9 am beyond the patio
looking out the front door - my car's the first one on the right

11 am - Amy's Car (mine is just barely visible) 
11/19/12 - Day 3 - The worst day of snow & the ice storm

8:30 am - the end of snow and the beginning of the Ice/Snow/Ice again


Can you see the ice beginning to build on Amy's tomato cages?

Ice layer on top of snow and the build up around the top of the pot is ice covered with snow
1/20/12 Day 4:  The snow & ice ends and the warming begins.  It started to rain early morning, but still some ice/snow.  We ventured out to get butter and saw the ice destruction.  Boeing had tons of trees down/ branches broken along the road.  In our complex two fir trees just bent over due to the weight of snow & ice. 

1/21/12 Day 5:  Rain continues - but the snow is still covering roads & our balcony, but my car was snow free

1/22/12 Day 6:  What's left at our house:

When I got to work on Monday - Issaquah still had lots of ice, and trees were down everywhere.  Areas were still without power, but school started again and we had to begin finals today - one week late.
