Snowmaggedon

Filed under: Thoughts On...

It has been snowing since last Wednesday.
Spokane (or Snowkane) normally averages about 45 inches of snow a year and in the last week we’ve had 39. Thanks to frigid temps that have barely hit the upper teens, all of that snow is still on the ground. Another storm is due Christmas Eve which is projected to push us over the yearly average.

Personally us Fooshes love it and I’m days away from starting construction on my first igloo. I’ve always wanted to build one but figured chances were slim since the snow doesn’t usually pile up enough here. Believe it or not it may need to warm up a little before I can start. Because it’s been so cold the snow is crazy dry. So dry it’s impossible to build a snowman (Jude is bummed) and really hard to make even a simple snowball. Someone said that there’s only 1 inch of moisture to 20 inches of snow right now. The stuff is so light it looks fake. Anyways, enough talk of snow. Hope you enjoy a great Christmas Eve Eve and I’ll keep you updated on my igloo aspirations.
