    For once they actually have a "real" snowday here in Lane County....and it's still coming down steadily...measured the snow on my deck and it's at 15 inches and yes, I expect this post to be fixed....simply change deck to dick I'm guessing

    It's snowing big time in Bend. Just got a video call from my brother driving to work.

    Here in Portland, the snow is deep enough to reach the tread of my car tires.

    Holy Trace Amounts, Batman!

    Rod Hill and Andy Carson both told us that it would stop snowing around noon today.

    Yeah, but it's thick. Did I ever tell you about my massive hands?

    Shit, we used to have to drive to school with no AWD nor 4WD when we had 5 1/2 inches of snow. Nobody but the wealthy had even four wheel drive in those days. I don't recall us even having chains and certainly no snow tires.
    Even my scaredy cat wife drove up and down a hill to the store and back.

    Edit: I walked 22 miles to school, uphill both ways.

    Normal winter weather for February here in Beautiful Central Oregon.

    About 3 feet accumulated, expecting another foot today.

    Took two days to dig out the driveway...it's also uphill to the road...man it hasn't dropped this much snow in Lane County since the 1800s according to the old timers who helped me get dug out this morning....power came back on about 11 am....about 30 hours without power.

    I hear you guys got slammed. Also, my wife mentioned that the coastal trained was stranded for 36 hours with 180 passengers on board, near Oakridge. Not enough rooms in town so they stayed on the train.

    I love Central Oregon, we spend time there fishing and camping. Friends have place in Fall River.
