SPOKANE -- The weekend snow created a busy morning for Washington State Patrol Deputies and tow truck drivers, who were sent to all corners of Spokane County to lead with slide-offs and rollover accidents.

Deputies responded to about 30 slide-offs or rollovers Sunday morning as the snow began to fall. According to the Washington State Patrol, each were caused by excessive speeds. Deputies say nobody was seriously injured in the accidents.

In Cheney, where three inches of snow fell and fell fast most enjoyed the first blast of the white stuff.

“We're retired so we're kinda... it doesn't bother us, we love it,” John and his wife Yvonne both agreed.

“I thought it was pretty awesome, I love snow!” Lucky Fitzner said.

Fitzner is also a plow driver for the City of Cheney and says they'll be busy Sunday night clearing the roads for Monday morning's commute.

It didn't matter that most of the snow in Spokane had melted from the roads by mid-afternoon because tire shops like Divine's Tire and Auto Center kept busy.

“When it first snows people are like 'oh I need to go get snow tires on' and then they try to find the first place that's open and so today's we're doing a lot of changes,” Jeremy Cox said.

Cox is a tow truck driver and a tire tech. He was working as fast as he could, but so many people came to Divine's for snow tires that the wait was at least two hours.

“It's exciting because the hours means more money for all of us and more money for the company... so with how today's economy is, the more money we make the happier everybody is,” Cox said.

As the day crept on the snow began to melt and all fears of another “snowpocalypse” like last winter were quelled.

Although some thought today's taste of winter was a lucky break – others say bring it on.
