this would help in placing twin peaks near the western edge of washington.
since washington is next to the ocean, it is in fact relatively rare for
there to be snow at all. (i'm talking about the strip containing bellingham,
seattle, tacoma, etc.) in seattle, it snows maybe once a year, and then
melts within a few days at most. the eastern edge of washington gets quite
a bit of snow during the winter.
