HBO’s Inland Northwest — 12.17.09

“There were several inches of snow on the ground on Dec. 17, 2008 as a storm moved in overnight,” recalls Councilwoman KerriT/More Main Street. “By the time morning dawned, North Idaho had received about two feet of snow in less than 24 hours! By the time winter turned to spring we would see record-breaking snowfall for the second winter in a row.” More here.

    DFO…the feds are scrambling to save sturgeon…not salmon. And they are great big ugly fish…kinda cool though. I hope they don’t flood us out to save the fishies though.

    too bad they don’t keep records on Kootenai county. 1991-92 we had 142 inches of snow with a four day record set of 44 inches between Thursday and Sunday. It snowed until we have 3 feet on the ground in Dalton Gardens. then a Chinook hit and it all melted. The snows returned, with a winter total of four storms with 24 inches or more, the last one in March.

    Interesting and fitting that Rumsfeld would choose Butte, the one place where most Montanans , and many others, would insert the enema.
