The snow started
For anyone keeping track of these things, the snow they keep warning us about (last I heard, the advisory was from 3pm today until something like 5am tomorrow morning) has started in earnest at about 1:30pm, here in Downtown Bend.

I was hoping it would wait until the kids got off the bus, so that I didn't have to go to the snow route stop.

It's a little lower, I think, more like 3000-3100. YMMV, of course--Awbrey Butte for instance is a bit higher :-)

I stand corrected, then. :-)
Barney nailed the YMMV acronym. Though now I have this (mean?) urge to start throwing out all the various internet-spawned acronyms, just to see...

When I got to work yesterday, it was bare, but by the time I left at 5, we had 10 inches of snow. Oh what fun... (took me over an hour to get home).
