It's looking a lot like more snow
Well the predicted storm is rocking and rolling through the Yakima Gulag, the wind is howling and any unclosed doors are slamming in the most sinister way.
Update* NPR and KIT knocked off the air. usually KIT manages not to get knocked off the air, it's ridiculously easy to knock NPR off the air, but usually not both will be knocked off at the same time, as well some bridge in the Seattle area is going to be closed at 11pm, due to the winds.
Further Update** Winds of 100 mph have been located in parts of the Pacific Northwest...
It of course creeps me out, not that storms bother me but the wind kicked up before I realized what was happening. That all happened as I decided to make up one of those boxes of no bake cheese cake. I vary the recipe a tiny bit, for one I usually use powdered milk with a hit of coffee creamer, which means I mix the filling with hot not cold water, and I put it in two small plastic Gladware dishes since I don't have an actual 9 inch pie pan, and then put them in the fridge to chill, for obviously longer than the 'at least one hour'. This was a thing I made often when the kids were little, because carrying ice cream in a back pack in any weather just isn't my idea of fun and delightfulness. I don't know it looks like the wind is indeed the promised 50mph+ we were all warned about, I hear it howling out there.
Was out seeing a friend who is ill right now most of the day, I took my copy of 'No Man's Land' for us to watchm, since she'd never seen it. She has a kid, and we wanted to pick a time when her kid was away since there is some language in the film and some violence, du'h it is a war movie! So we timed it in such a way that no small children would see it. She liked it, and we had some lunch, then I went home, it was stormy out from early. It smells like Seattle here. All the ice is washed away from the sidewalks near me, but I bet it will all be back tomorrow.
