    We got home 1/2 ago and now we're debating going back downtown because this forecast sounds ominous, lol.

    Just got back from a tour around Willieville. The breadth of the tree damage (in the self described “Tree City”) is heartbreaking. Things are gonna look like shit for the next few years....

    I got stuck in OC for 3 days. It's the worst of the worst. The ice is thicker than that, though. And trees are literally down everywhere. And Pine trees arent safe, either. Thats the one that took out the back window of my car.

    Fuck dude. I can't get anyone out to my car until the earliest Monday Night. It's just stuck in OC. I can't remember a worse weekend than this one.

    I slid a couple of times leaving the apartment complex but it was pretty smooth. Everyone driving slower, I like it like that lol


    I guess the west side didn’t get the brunt of it

    McMinnville got hit hard. We, and the surrounding areas, received most of the moisture in ice. It’s a complete shit show. One-half inch of ice is far worse than a bunch of snow.

    I'll take snow all day over ice. Ice literally stalls everything. Breaks down all the trees, power lines, etc. It's awful.

    Thanks riverman, just got off the phone with a 24 hour window place... they will be out tomorrow. Just an unreal weather weekend.

    Hope you're doing well, too, Riverman. I know you're not "near" all of this, but I do hope you're doing well in general.

    Went snowboarding today with the ole lady. Roads below were way worse than the mountain. Ice ice baby indeed. Crazy luck would have it powers out in a big circle around my hood but ours is good.

    I don’t think that’s accurate. At least not here in Beaverton. The temp is climbing and will continue to climb all night.
