Snow Corgi
21 December 2008 by ben.
Our snow and cold just won’t go away! The low on Saturday morning was 14.9 degrees F (-9.5C), the coldest ever reported by my weather station, with the average for the past two days just 23 degrees F. Saturday, another snow storm moved into the area, dropping 7″ (18 cm) of new snow. My brother, Nathan, in Montesano near the Pacific Ocean, reported 14″ (35.5 cm) of snow by 10 pm last night as it was tapering off at his house. Seattle was spared most of the high winds from this powerful storm, which generated gusts of 70 MPH in Enumclaw and 100 MPH in Cumberland.
Kim and I got back from the Christmas shopping shortly after the snow began to fall in earnest just after 3 pm, and so we were able to enjoy the rare spectacle of snow on a very cold day in Seattle. I took these shots after 10 pm around our home. In this first photo, our older corgi, Raffle, plays a bit in the snow. She’s about 86 in ‘people years,’ but bursts with exuberance in the snow!
