Ribs on an electric grill? You must be one of those folk who think having a BBQ means going to an Applebees or Famous Dave's

BTW, didn't need an SUV when I was at Squaw even though they got about 24 inches of snow while I was there. All you have to do is know how to drive, which DQs about 95% of those from CA. Favorite place while in Tahoe? Rosie's even though there was a mircrobrewery just opening up on the lake.

So yeah.
It's snowed in Seattle.
It happens.
But not frequently.
My house has a foot.
My friend's house, 8 miles northwest, has 2 feet.
My office, 15 miles southeast, has 8 inches.
We have very little snow removal equipment, so it takes forever to get a street plowed or sanded.
Lowe's and Home Depot stores are completely sold out of ice-melt. No one can keep tire chains in stock.
It's a real hoot.

Yeah, I know, hence the post!

My house has a foot.

Around here, our houses have footers and usually more than one.

My friend's house, 8 miles northwest, has 2 feet.

Guess that means he doesn't have to go to IHOP.

My office, 15 miles southeast, has 8 inches.

Well,....nah, I'll leave that one alone.

We have very little snow removal equipment, so it takes forever to get a street plowed or sanded.

Please! What is there to remove? Not enough to worry about assuming one knows how to drive.

Lowe's and Home Depot stores are completely sold out of ice-melt. No one can keep tire chains in stock.

For what? All they do is screw up the road. That's like wade's area. You are required to have chains when it snows, but you cannot purchase them until you are in the area where it snows. CA, go figure

It has already snowed near Galveston twice this year and winter just started a couple of days ago.

My youngest (who is now 16) always wanted snow here. After the 2004 Christmas snow.............she is glad she lives in a temperate region.

I don't mind the cold weather as much as I spent so many Cold fronts in Deer/Duck blinds. However, I can see her point. I just wish that we could do away with the weeks of 95+ temperatures as well.
