What I want to know is.... When does the football game start? All the local Portland stations are covering the "storm" wall-to-wall and I'm afraid they're so clueless they'll pre-empt the game!
The East part of Multnomah County is going to be hit very soon with lower temperatures and perhaps snow or freezing rain blasting out of the Gorge. Snow may be falling in Troutdale right now. I have some friends living out on the Sandy River and they may soon be wishing they had rented a warm hotel room in SW Portland.
