No, there was no snow involved with the storm in 1993. I believe it was the Inauguration Day storm that Snowy eluded to. It was a while ago, but I remember the early morning was uneventful as I drove to work, then all hell broke loose later in the morning. It seemed as if the wind storm just came out of nowhere without warning. It was impressive to see the evergreen trees outside my office window bend over almost horizontally with each wind gust. The wind storm seemed to end rather quickly too, like around noon time. I wonder what it would have felt like being on the observation deck of the space needle at the time.
