Gloom & doom

Well, that sucked!

We were visited with a significant (for us) load of wet snow over the weekend followed by a butt-ton of rain, over 8" in 24 hours. Two things saved our bacon: it didn't freeze, and the wind didn't get as freakishly bad as predicted.

There wasn't a lot of major damage in my immediate stomping grounds, but outlying areas are enjoying washed-out roads and bridges and, of course, landslides.

You know, they say that as that climate warms up, this kind of increasingly severe chaotic weather is what we can look forward to in my corner of the globe.

Ick.
