Well here in the Willamette valley around the Portland / Salem area they are definitely not prepared for this cold stuff. We’ve been jumping from +16 - +28 for the last 4 days and a lot of high winds. but it’s turned into an ice storm the last day or so making going anywhere or doing anything impossible, or just down right stupid to try driving in. Hell…. It’s so slick outside I’m having a tough time getting wood in the house to keep th3 wood stove going.
But….. we are up to 32 this morning and it’s starting to drip out there. We even have a promise of rain coming to wash out all the ice. I can live with that. There are thousands of people here without power because of downed trees, and trying to stay warm….. I’m hoping it’s done for awhile. Kirk
