Many of the main roads are salted and sanded. Nevertheless buses are getting stick even downtown on the flats, and most of the hilly routes are cancelled. I have a set of city crampons that fit my boots, so I can walk around safely on the ice, and everything I need is walking distance. Today I would like to go out to north city though, I'll have to check if the buses I need are running.
Here in central Seattle it has been kind of festive, for those who don't have to drive anywhere. Wenesday I walked down to Seattle U. The students were sledding on those steep hills, and making snowmen and snow forts.
That evening I went out for wine and tapas with someone from my former building who happens to live just down the street from me now. She has been off work from snow emergency all but one day this week.
The tapas place was mobbed to where we had to wait a little while to get a table.
