    National Weather Service calling for a decent snow dump in the Seattle area this week. It is currently snowing lightly north of Seattle, up to the Bellingham/Vancouver BC area (I-5 corridor), and in the Tacoma/Olympia areas, with slight accumulation. Lows in the 20's this week, so watch for black ice on the highways.

    More snow coming later this week--Tuesday through Thursday--with greater accumulation, probably heavy around the North Bend and Snoqualmie Pass area (I-90 corridor), all the way to Spokane, as usual.

    Stay safe out there.

    BAD

    This week seems to be bad. Driving I-90 W, had to shut it down around 3 AM in Sundance, WY. Was pushing 2 feet of snow with my bumper and couldnt see it was snowing so hard. Started driving again at 6 AM and it was still bad. Drive safe everyone.

    I was in Seattle a few years ago when it snowed all the way down to Portland, I-5 was a mess, i just parked for a day, did not feel like breaking an axle from all the ruts in the road. Sucks they don't have the plows to clean up the roads in that area. Be safe.
