It's a mess out there.
Haven't seen snow this deep since the Blizzard of 1996.
(My fellow Oregon gerbils will hopefully remember that..)

I am still amazed by the 'smoke' forecast. Certain other cities I track for weather routinely have 'smoke' due to pollution. Is it worse to have 'smoke' at 5* F or 95* F?

Already watched one guy attempt to come down the hill in a Mustang convertible earlier this evening. At least he had the sense of mind to realize he'd made a terrible mistake before he picked up too much speed, and swung it into a neighbor's driveway.
