Artic Blast
Portland received a foot of snow right before Christmas. The town pretty much shuts down with 2-3 inches of snow, so you can imagine how 12" effected us. Both mine and Nate's work closed for 3 days. Chains were required to drive on any city road and highways. Supposedly, there were police officers watching and giving citations to those who didn't chain up. Portland must only have 1 gravel truck and 2 plows because almost all roads were left untouched, making driving very challenging. Even the Tri-met buses were getting stuck everywhere. Here is a picture of one right up the road from us. Boy! Did the news crews have fun predicting and broadcasting the "Arctic Blast" every single second, of every hour, of every day ~ on EVERY channel.
