Well, not really, but this is about as close as we usually come here in Tacoma, WA USA to a snow day. Although snowfalls just a bit east of us, on the other side of the Cascade Mountains, can be epic, here at sea level we seldom get any more than this.
However, last year (I think it was in January) our area had something like 7 inches of snow all at once. We were traveling in the balmy Caribbean and missed it. In fact, we traveled in the early winter of both 2018 and 2019, so it’s been a while since we’ve seen snow of any amount—except on top of mountains way off in the distance.
We grew up in New England, so the sight of a real snow accumulation still warms my heart. One of the benefits of being retired is that, when risky weather strikes, we can just stay inside and admire it instead of having to brave it.

Retreading for Retirement 
We had snow here in Savannah, Georgia last year in January. Some of it actually stayed on the ground for more than 24 hours! It’s a once-in-20-years phenomenon here. Enjoy your white stuff!
