Tuesday's Snow Storm

If you want to read more about our surprise snow storm on Tuesday, click on my link to the Duluth News Tribune on my site and look under "Roadways tangled up in Snow", and click on

"Did you find a quick route out of downtown on Tuesday?"

and read what people wrote about their adventures getting home that afternoon. Very interesting reading. A few people wrote that they'd rather put up with Tuesday's weather once in a while, than LA's traffic, commuting 5 days a week!

It was really something that the downtown got more snow than we did over the hill here...that never happens! West Duluth got 17 inches, we got about 4 and downtown 10 or more. Apparently it had to do with the way the "clipper" came in and also "Lake Effects". The city says the equipment was out, but they simply couldn't keep up with the snow falling at 2 inches an hour, that was coming down in the western and downtown areas.
