Winter is diffently here

R.W. · 12-02-2007, 11:01 AM

I almost rode into December but with conditions like this it's time to break down the VFR for winter, here is a couple of pictures of what December brought to the Puget Sound area...

No snow on the ground here yet, but cold as a witches chesticles in a brass bra. And windy like a mofo too.

powerslave · 12-02-2007, 05:43 PM

looks like you have a slight dusting of snow.....i've been riding my sled for over a week now!!!!!!!!!

reg71 · 12-02-2007, 08:10 PM

I think you could still ride in that. what are you a P#SSY?

RVFR · 12-02-2007, 08:29 PM

Don't dare him like that Reg, he's just itchin for any excuse to get out. ;)

R.W. · 12-03-2007, 08:01 PM

After the rare snow storm the weather has turned to heavy rain, 7.5" in 24 hours and 13.80 for a 48 hour period

flooding has been going on everywhere up here. I live in a area that's protected from any real danger but we have a small creek that surrounds our property, today is the first time it ever went over our driveway, here is a pic...

drewl · 12-03-2007, 09:50 PM

Must be runnin down hill, it's raining here too. not near as much.

RVFR · 12-03-2007, 09:52 PM

Yep it's a tad wet out all over the place, set a lot of records for the most in a 24 hour period. Guess a ride down #25 is out of the question huh?
Heres a video of what the local paper came up with.

That photo reminds me of the time the septic system decided to stop working when I was trying to sell my house....

reg71 · 12-07-2007, 10:18 AM

well, we finally got some rain. nothing like what you have up there, but what passes for rain down here anyway... it's really more like a steady mist, almost what we would called a sprinkle in MO...

Taz · 12-07-2007, 10:36 AM

Still rain here & still getting traction (dunlop 616's rule

)

can start snowing any minute

That's the word the rest of the nation thinks of Californians who whine about how cold 60 degrees is in December
