Finally

A bit of snow shoveling and we're able to get away from the house. I estimate this storm deposited 8-10" of snow. And, yes the bare pavement is part of our driveway. Steep isn't it?

We were lucky ... we didn't have power outages tho the lights flickered throughout the storm
... the latest report indicated over 100,000 homes are still without power.

If you are moving here from a region (most of the Country?) with underground power lines ... be prepared ... most of the Seattle area has old-fashioned power lines stretched between poles.  When there's too snow or ice, the lines break and you best have a back-up generator.

The weather warnings are now about flooding as the snow melts.
