I shouldn't say this but every time we are in downtown Portland, there must be a snow flake somewhere because everything seems to come to a halt, doesn't matter what time of year.Here in the Portland (Oregon) area, we rarely get snow. Therefore all it takes is one snow flake to be seen in the metro area and traffic seizes up because everyone freaks out.
I've done a lot of snow skiing so I know how to drive in the stuff, but when 99.9% of the drivers around you have been reduced to idiocy by sighting that one flake, it's best to hide out until the mayhem has died down some. And that may happen soon....a lobe of that super-cold air is coming our way.
You suck, send some of that sun and 65f here....In 1974-75, I took a motorcycle road test in Salt Lake City on December 26th. There was 8 inches on the ground and more on the way. I've seen enough cold and snow to last the rest of my life, what there is of it. (I'm 70 now) In the end, I settled in the deep south (Birmingham) because it so rarely snows here. BTW, it's 65F as I write this at 7:45PM.
