Its a Real White Christmas!

Weather storiesIt has been a heck of a December in Bothell. December gave is a low temperature of 11.5 degrees, which is the lowest temperature I can recall experiencing in the area. Also, winter storm after winter storm left Bothell with 19 inches of total snowfall, with 12-16 inches on the ground!

Most wonderful of all was our White Christmas, which found Seattle with the most snow on the ground for December 25 since 1861. A very small convergence zone is giving us a dose of snow that most of the rest of King County is missing out on.
