As of December 29th at 4 PM PST... the monthly snow total for the Spokane international Airport was 59.7 inches. This snow total ranks first on the list of snow totals for any month and breaks the previous record of 56.9 inches set in January of 1950.
Let me be the first to tell you that I LOVE snow! Every year when people begin to gripe about the snow falling I am thrilled to see it come in all of its beautiful sparkling white glory. I love the stillness of a fresh snow covering, the excitement of a disrupted routine and all of the outdoor fun that comes along with snow. This, however, is quite enough! Another foot of snow fell yesterday morning confirming what Quyen knew was inevitable but I was standing firmly against... our plans to join our closest friends & family to celebrate New Years in Seattle would not be possible. I want to cry! But instead I will make the best of our circumstances and look forward to traveling west just as soon as mother nature will allow us to. More snow is expected late tonight into New Years Eve followed by yet another storm and then more snow until the end of eternity. Could someone please come rescue me and bring me to sunshine? I promise never to take it for granted again!
