Western Washington Severe Weather December 2008 Day2 10:38pm

Real Snow Accumulation in South Kitsap!



There is no wind to speak of at 10:38pm, but the snow it is a fallin'! At just 10:25pm it had just dusted the fir branches outside my window. This little pocket of the county doesn't usually get snow unless the rest is pretty well covered, so I presume the rest of the county may have a solid 1/2 inch by now or more. The pacific satellite image shows clouds from the north out of Alaska and the south out of Hawaii converging and swerving just off the Wa/Or coast, and then dropping down into southern CA and heading east. Feeling sorry for my cuzins on 'da Ilan and hopeful for those folk in the south hankerin' for water.







Here is a short video out the kitchen window, you can see that darn digital thermometer on the window. Absolutely useless at night.

By 10:45pm, there was a solid inch of snow up the road from the Kitsap Court house, here are a couple of pictures. Still no wind to speak of.
