There was no sign of snow as I left my house this morning at 5 am, but then as we boarded the plane at Seattle-Tacoma airport a few snowflakes mixed in with the light rain, came down. The pilot said he could still get us out there without needing to call for a de-icing of the wings of the plane. I work in the city office for my final week on the project (yay!), and is cold here in San Francisco as well.
There was a terrible tragedy in Oakland across the Bay over the weekend : a fire raged through a converted warehouse with apartments and and an entertainment area, and more than 30 people perished in the blaze.
