Rain, Rain, and more SNOW!!

Well, when they say (and by they, I'm referring to the characters in "Sleepless in Seattle") it rains 9 months a year in Seattle, they didn't lie. I know I've only lived here for 6 months, but I can't believe how much it rains. I don't actually mind it - I have a trusty rain coat and rain boots to get me through. We're having crazy weather up here right now - 2 highways are closed because of flooding, and I-90 is closed east of Seattle because of avalanches due to so much snow!! I-90 being closed is a bummer, because that means we can't go skiing....
