In which alternate universe is 16 degrees (F) bitterly cold? now -20 or so, that might be getting into the bitter category.

18 F here. That's brutally cold for Seattle, but I don't have to work. So I don't care.
However, my kid's school is starting 90 minutes late. I can't really figure out why, since it seems the roads are fairly cleared off. I guess the teachers think waiting 90 minutes will warm the temps from 18 to 20 degrees and that somehow makes a difference. I do have to drag myself down to the UW to pick up my college kid for winter break. I wonder if the 520 bridge is iced over? Nomii? Can you go test drive it and report back by noon please? |

Can you go test drive it and report back by noon please?i just came over from the 520 bridge - its no biggie and only snow is on the sidewalks (although i wasn't driving, the bus was) - and the sun is coming up so any issues would be gone by noon. |

I am one of those people that just gets in the right lane and goes really slow and pisses all the fast drivers off. Although I have to say, the last few nights I have been one of the faster drivers on the freeway, so apparently I am not alone in my driving in the snow phobia. |
