It appears that major snow storm in the pacific northwest has knocked out Valve’s Steam servers, rendering gameplay and forum discussion unaccessible. Valve/Steam have yet to make any comment. The blizzard hitting the area is extremely intense, reports say four people have died. Valve is located in the Seattle suburb of Bellevue, one of the regions severely hit by the blizzard.
