    +19 Finished blowing-out the drive way to move fire wood onto porch, some drifts over 2 feet deep. It is snowing, heavily.

    Local TV is calling this the worst storm to hit Portland in 50 years and they might be right but I can remember when the Columbia River froze solid for 6" and the Corps of Engineers had to use explosives to save the dam and locks. As for me it's a repeat of yesterday

    I-84 was open for several hours but is closed again due to ice. 200K customers are still w/o power; ice storms continue. A car has gone off the I-205 bridge into the Columbia river, recovery efforts underway

    +21 snow is forecast for the next 10 days, roads are still closed so I'm likely trapped until the snow plows do their jobs. I've used almost 5 gallons of gas in the snow blower since Friday. I need to get home and see to my water pipes

    Sorry to hear that: it will take me nearly 5 hours work to clear the new fallen snow today. It's freezing rain now but more snow on way. I'm trapped until they plow the state and county highways!
