    Portland is one of the prettiest places I can think of under a blanket of snow. I wish it would snow more in the Willamette Valley. Thanks for the pic.

    A little bit of snow is awesome. A Flurry on a Sunday afternoon driving by the Falls is amazing.

    Last year was terrific. I loved it. Really disappointed that no snow materialized last weekend, but there should be more chances. It's a little early to be giving up on winter yet.

    If we got more snow in Portland, we'd also be better prepared for it. Right now, a few flakes cripple the city.

    You'd be surprised how many people have Palm trees in their yards now in Portland.

    Not to get off subject here but PHX have the best Palms in the country, IMO.
