What the heck? We are under a foot and a half of snow and more is falling. Did the weather forget that this is Portland, Oregon? We don't get snow like this...and certainly not within three days! Oi! :wtf:
To give you an idea of how bad it is, pretty much all public transportation is down. We don't have enough snow plows, so they have two people per snowplow, and they are running them 21 hours a day...and still not able to get all of the roads done. Some of the drifts (like the ones at the end of our cul-de-sac) are up to Jefferycarman's waist.
They are now reporting that this is the 3rd worst snow storm in all of Oregon's reported history. Nice...:Oo:
Anyhoo, I know that this thread is worthless without pictures. However, our new home has crap for a heating system and we are staying warm at a friends' house. And, we don't have the ability to post up all the pictures we have taken. However, Jeff is going to try and head to our house and get some more items for us and check on the house and I will have him grab our camera cable!!!
