Let it snow!

Lewis Smith, age 13, shovels snow as he builds an igloo in front of his home in Overland Park, Kan. Friday, Dec. 25, 2009.

The Inland Northwest may have missed out on a white Christmas this year, but forecasters are promising to make up for it this week.

National Weather Service meteorologists on Monday were eyeing a pair of Pacific storm systems moving toward the Inland Northwest.

They are expected to drop an inch or so of snow Tuesday night and Wednesday and again on Thursday night and Friday.

Already coming down in Spokane this morning. Good news or bad news?

    Would be good news if it wasn’t forecast to start raining on Saturday.

    Good. Snow is always good. If you don’t like snow, move to Arizona like Hmoff. Although the local TV news “personalities” seem to always think that any snow is a Catastrophic World Event, one of the reasons I live up here is because I *love* snowy winters. I’ve been very disappointed by the lack of substantial snow so far this winter.

    Bring it on! Let it snow!

    My dad said that a lot - “Let it snow” - until it snowed four feet and from then on, he kept his mouth shut.

    I only regret there was no snow for Christmas. Other than that, I think I still have snow left over from a year ago.
