What a surprise to wake up to, 11 cm since midnight with a total accumulation of 19 cm. Also no power but it came on around 10 am.

Still snowing small flakes but pretty steady.

With the exception of Monty, looks like you’re the big winner with this storm!
It's called clown range for a reason.

When I first moved to the Pacific Northwest, one of the things that amazed me was how much that initial 100 m (heck, often just the initial 50 m) of elevation mattered so much during snowfalls. The first 50 m often makes as much or more difference than an additional 250 m of elevation does in the Rockies. When they said “snow in the higher hills,” I had pictured that as meaning the foothills well out of the city, not the roughly 100 m in-city ridge top my first home was on.
