Snow
November 27th, 2006 by ktula
The storm that brought fresh powder during my 2-day snowboarding trip at Whistler also blanketed Vancouver and Western Washington (from the Canadian border all the way South of Everett) with more than 15 inches of snow. Normally the travel time between Richmond (BC) and Seattle is about 2.5 hours but because of the enormous amount of snow on a big stretch of I-5, it took me more than 5 hours to get home. I was averaging no more than 20 miles an hour on I-5 between the border town of Blaine and exit 232 near Mt Vernon, a distance of about 50 miles. There was no sign of any snow removal equipment on the freeway and that might explain the number of vehicles that i witnessed in the ditches.
