Worked until 8 PM yesterday. But it was not quite dark yet. Ah … Spring.
We had a Board meeting at 3 PM and a rate hearing at 7 PM.
Both meetings were punctuated by hail and rain, and a little snow.
Punctuated by the sounds on the skylights, which actually made you have to raise your voice to be heard.
Temperature in the 30’s when I finally left, letting the wipers get rid of the residual ice pellets.
Seattle area roads are in a state of flux, usually.
Expansions for Microsoft, changes at the interchanges.
As they build they shift lanes here and there.
They use a lot of the stick on reflector bits and rubberized paint stuff to identify lanes.
But when they flex for construction or changes, all those lane identifiers must come up.
They remove the reflectors, but a bits of the glue stay on the pavement.
They remove the paint by grinding it off, leaving a ground line instead.
When it has rained, and then the sun comes through at a low angle, the removed stuff can show up just as well, or better than the current lane markings. I know I am not the only one that is befuddled by what I am seeing.
But made it home safely as the sun finally disappeared completely.
I had driven in the rain all the way home, but to the west there was hope for clearing.
Nope – this morning it is clouds again.
