Snow Day?

I live in Sammamish, we refer to it as the “Plateau” here at work.  Something tells me that a lot of us who work at Microsoft who live on the Plateau will be working from home tomorrow. :-)   I just snapped this photos about 20 minutes ago. 

  

 

Rounding out the coverage, I’ll see what I can track for links from other MS Bloggers.

Mike Hall is at work, but he’ll work and install Vista. :-)
Mikhail Arkhipov worked remotely and made snowmen with his daughter :-)
J.D. almost hit a cross country skier

… and the very next day ….

Definitely a work from home day for me and many others.  My neighborhood has a huge incline on its way in that makes it uphill both ways.  So my neighborhood is snowed right in, the news is saying Sammamish got 6 inches of snow last night. 

In some places the news was saying that the roads were so bad that many folks just abandoned there cars and walked home.  For example the news said the 24 hour Wallgreen in Redmond is where a number of folks ended up spending the night.  On the interstate there are cars littered on the roadside too.  Last night around 9:00 pm my wife saw a fellow walking into our neighborhood on foot, in a suit with a briefcase.

Here’s a snap from the SR-520 Webcam (just about a mile from Microsoft) that shows the snow.  Looks like a lot like Saskatchewan to me, but then again at least its not 35 below. :-)
