West Seattle weather: Scenes from a flaky day

We lost count at three blasts of snow/hail today – at least one, followed by sunshine. Thanks to everyone who shared photos; we’re finally getting a chance to check them out, and this is the first one we wanted to share – Michaela took photos during the West Seattle High School soccer game, which included sun as well as snow! (According to the scoreboard published by our partners at the Seattle Times, Ingraham beat WSHS 11-0.)

ADDED: JayDee‘s view of the “storm train,” seen from Upper Alki:

From The Junction this afternoon, the snow shower that hit just before 4 pm:

And not far away, WSB contributor Katie Meyer caught the sights and sounds of the afternoon’s hail:

Still a chance of snow showers till late Wednesday morning, say the forecasters.

    I swear, the weather today was like dealing with someone who was laughing hysterically one minute, weeping the next.
    .
    Oh wait, that was me.

    in this weather, my father, from the old country, used to say: the devil is beating his wife. I think there are variations on this saying in some areas of US south. I never did understand what it was supposed to mean, but I think it every time it rains and suns at the same time.

    It baffles me with all the youth soccer leagues, games and fields in West Seattle, how does the local high school get beat 11-0? Several youth teams are state champs from WS and Highline Youth soccer. We need the soccer community to support these schools too!

Sorry, comment time is over.
