KOMO Weather Report

OK, admit it -- you were at least peeking at the "snow panic" manual hidden underneath the coffee table.

You know, the one that gives protocol on how fast to drive to neighborhood food stores to stock up on potato chips and doughnuts (because calories don't count in a snow emergency) and raid the sterno isle as you make sure to keep your arms raised above your head and sway side-to-side as you yell in panic, "I saw a snowflake on my windshield!"

Yes, for the first time since mid December, we're seeing a few snowflakes fly in some spots around the Puget Sound area.  Snowflake reports have come in from the greater Tacoma area, Bellingham, Oak Harbor, Federal Way, Shoreline and even the U-District. And I guess we can be forgiven a little excitement since at this point, Houston is still ahead of us this winter in the snow accumulation department (1"-Trace, if you're keeping score.)

Wow, that's surprising you guys haven't seen much snow yet, and that there are still traces popping up now and then. I'm hoping we've finally seen the last of it out here in Bloomington.
