The Viking City gets a snow day

Old man winter has finally arrived in the Viking City, with a dumping of snow on downtown Poulsbo and greater Kitsap County Sunday evening and into early Monday morning. Another round of snow is expected throughout the week.

Here are a few photos of Poulsbo with its fresh blanket of snow.

Liberty Bay is famed for its sunset photos but these snow-covered homes and trees provide a beautiful view as well.

The holidays may be over but the lights on Poulsbo’s Christmas tree still shine bright.
