The NWS just reissued a "Winter Weather Advisory" until 3:00 this afternoon.... Here is the text:

Quilcene and the area near the Hood Canal Bridge.

There was a brief lull in the weather this morning and I had an opportunity get the drone up to see how much snow fell in the area.  We had nothing at sea level and you can see it starts covering the roofs up around 200'.  The drone is flying at 390'.  Watch for the eagle at the top of the tree on the left as the drone goes up.  This video was taken around 10:30 this morning.



Shortly after making this video, the North wind kicked up and then it started to snow hard.  Our lawn is and roof is now white....
