How about that, a little winter precipitation managed to hit the sandy shores of the mighty Pacific last month. My sister reported a light dusting at her home in Oysterville on the Long Beach Peninsula. Although snow isn't super rare on Washington's beautiful coast, it is rather unusual. The arctic outbreak brought a full foot of deep powder to the Portland - Vancouver metro area over the Holiday weekend for Presidents Day and of course Saint Valentine's Day.
I've never managed to be at the coast during a snow event, so I figure one of these days I'll pay sis a visit during a winter event :)
Stay tuned for updates on coastal activities as the Governor seems to be loosening his grip on the COVID restrictions and hopefully coupled with vaccines we can have a fun summer at the beach.
