Cliff Mass Weather Blog: Major Snow Event
“The bottom line is that there is a serious threat on Wednesday of 8-15 inches of snow over the region, with a minimal turn over to rain. The biggest snowstorm in years. Anyway, before anyone goes out and buys a snowblower, lets see what tonight’s runs show. If they continue this trend then Slushmageddon might be replaced by Snowmageddon. In almost any conceivable case, Wednesday morning is going to be very problematic for travel.”
The snow is real tough on Seattle drivers. Recorded this on First Hill at Boren Ave. & University St. yesterday.
Found this while organizing my files (across two computers, Dropbox and an external). Drew it three years ago for a poster, but I think it’s appropriate given Seattle’s current relationship with the weather.
I love this GIF so much.
Carl, you’re my hero. The world is so much a better place because of your short presence here.
Love this sentiment. I suppose you could substitute Univers or Akzidenz Grotesk…that’d be acceptable.
(Don’t love the default Illustrator ornamented line, though.)

My Contribution to the Seattle Police Department
One day into my vacation and I already have a new gig designing for the Seattle Police Department. Or…something. Also, it’s my first showing on the Slog. (Note to haters: I’m not anti-cop, just anti-Diaz and anti-systemic misconduct.)
