Plus, the winds are blowing the shit south.

| Was on I5 last night, pretty intense
Where 2 foot of snow was dumped very quickly near Mount Vernon. Highway came to standstill, people abandoning cars, etc.. http://www.nwcn.com/news/Winter-blas...116762504.html
Actually detoured and went Route 11. Nice long scenic drive, too bad didn't take pictures.
