Facebook message from Kirkwood: Cup'O'Joe in with with a blustery start to the here on the Southside... Winds in the 50/60mph range with ‪#‎Godzilla‬ approaching the West Coast... A lot of moving parts over the next several days mis amigos...
Weather West has a huge amount of snow falling when NWS has several feet but I'd say let's be ‪#‎Stoked‬ with another 12" over the next 96hr
