    Funny enough my husband intends to ride tomorrow just because the last time there was a storm he was just about stuck on the eastside..... He figures even if he has to walk his bike across the bridge its better than being in standstill traffic.....

    We must be in a particularly sheltered area. Last year we didn't have any downed trees near us, we never lost our power (well we do live about 1/2 block from the substation) and I don't think there was any damage on our street either - it didn't eve seem that windy.

    Wind storm? Is there gonna be a windstorm?

    I have Presto logs and half-a-jillion tea candles, so I think we're ok. Assuming busses work like they're supposed to so. If the power goes out, we won't have internet!!! We won't have a microwave!

    We'll have to eat cold spam. And Clif bars. By candlelight.

    We didn't either. Just up the road, out for a week. Just down the road, better, but still lost lights for a little while. My job site a few miles from the apartment, out. Also no cell phone over on that side of the ridge.

    I remember when the snow storm hit last winter. I was on my way back from a meeting in Tukwila when it showed up. My supervisor and I drove like hell to make it back to mukilteo before things got really crazy.

    At least one time this year, I want to go to work on my snowshoes. I drive well on snow but the idea seems terribly funny.
