Lordee....that was nearly mine tonight....Had the scariest trip home I've EVER had....Go to the Seattle Times tonight, and check out the headline about the snow tonight.... I left the Library about 4:30, got caught in the pea sized snow/hail, and then slipped and slid for about a mile toward home....Had a midsized hill to get up and didn't quite make the top...See the note about the stuck buses...traffic was just simply terrible. Problem was the snow was falling so hard, and the bottom of the snow was a sheet of ice...Ended up behind a guy that got stuck...luckily, I was about 3 car lengths behind him...he sputtered, and I got stuck too. Tried to get in the middle lane, but couldn't because the cars coming down the hill were sliding and slipping too. Didn't want to see them get close to me. Finally a husky boy came over and helped push the back of my car and I put it in 2nd and carefully, oh so carefully, got up the rest of the hill. Cars were really all over the place. I can't tell you how glad I was to finally get home. My body shook for about 15 minutes.... The tough thing in a situation like that is the people who get out of their cars, and decide to walk, forgetting that the drivers in the cars are attempting to move their car, get by the other cars which are stuck, and trying not to hit the pedestrians.
