A couple of hours later

We are seeing larger flakes now and some accumulation. The fog has lifted enought so that the trees on the island across the Narrows can now be seen with a dusting of snow on them. The forecast still says "no significant accumulation." I suppose "significant" depends on where it is meant. In Portland, this would be enough cause for a shutdown of the entire city, school and church closures, non-essential employees staying home, etc.

Our cats seemed to be curious about the white stuff. Both of them made little meowing sounds that they make that we've often heard in association with birds. Perhaps they think the little white flakes are tiny little birds... They don't seem to want to go out into the cold though.
