I love snow too......but we didn't get any

We had a temp inversion complicated by heavy winds funneled into our area by the Columbia River Gorge. The net effect is warm air aloft melting the snow long before it touches the ground but then it re-freezes just above surface level iciing up our whole world with no chance to make a snow man ...........it is 10 times more treacherous then any snow storm I have ever expeirenced(including a doozy we had last year at this time). Fortunatley, it is somewhat rare and they usually don't last too long.

What is really a bummer for the kids is that it is too dangerous to let them play in it(unless they have ice skates) and it happened on a Saturday so they had no school closed fun.
