Should anyone have the opportunity to see news coverage of this morning's weather & commute in Portland odds are you will be entertained. A local Teacher caught a particularly dicey spot on amteur video, it's a masterpiece, TV news has been playing it repeatedly.
Weather decided to drop it load of fun just as folks were hitting the highways for the morning drive to work. Several inches of wet soggy snow fell & was instantly packed to glaze by the traffic.
My Sis called early from Vancouver, Wa about 10:00, she works for the School dist & was home early, after the District belatedly called another "Snow Day" . The dist fleet of school busses left the yard on time, got caught a bit unprepared, they had a dozen buses stranded, each with a few kids from early on the routes. No one in any real danger, thank the lord for Cell phones.

Some fun,
