    I don’t pay that much attention, but didn’t Mt. Hood open relatively early this year?

    Earliest opening for a lot of ski resorts in the area in recent memory.

    Can we do a poll or contest where we guess which local news station intern is gonna be out the earliest on a freeway overpass somewhere just to be able to document the first snowflake of this winter? It's as sure as death and taxes......and I'd bet Sly has some cool swag for prizes........

    It's a definite possibility this year. Even now, it's nice to see how snowy Mt Hood looks already.

    Supposed to be one of the worst winters in a long time.

    Preparing for week long hotel stays for work.

    As an aspiring broadcaster, my parents would always joke with me that one day I'd be the person on the side of I-84 in the Troutdale area freezing my butt off reporting on the fresh snow/ice. When I got my start in Laredo I figured that would never happen but sure enough, one of the few bad winter storms and there I was on the side of I-35 reporting on ice turning the freeway into a skating rink. Couldn't help but laugh knowing I was officially part of 'the club' of reporters that had to go through that.

    Great story! And you confirmed that the "poor intern freezing on the overpass waiting for the first snowflake" isn't just some urban legend. It's a rite of passage.

    Butt did you go back to where your butt froze off and see if your butt was laying there on the concrete?

    Or maybe some homeless guy grabbed your butt and ran off?
