November Wet and Wild

November in Arlington started with rain and flooding and ended with snow.

For several days after Thanksgiving, the Puget Sound area got hit with snow. We had over a foot of snow at our house. Lots of trees lost branches. We had a couple of days with no power, no school, no work. So we huddled around the fireplace to stay warm and listened to the transistor radio.

Now the snow is melting. We are getting caught up at work and watching the same storm pound the Midwest. Suddenly, Christmas is just around the corner.

November was the wettest month in the Seattle area since they started keeping records 150 years ago. So hopefully December weather will be a little more normal.
