We've seen it all in the past 48 hours: Renton received buckets of snow, then froze and sparkeled with an inch or more of ice. Next began the ping-pong pelting of freezing rain. Temperatures warmed, sleet turned to showers, the snow began to melt and then the urban flooding began.
Governor Christine Gregoire declared a state of emergency, SeaTac aiport briefly shut down and the City of Renton advised motorists to stay off the roads.
The City and its residents are getting back to business as temeratures level out. Here's a visual tour around the city of Renton over the last two days.
