We have been hearing on the news/weather here for days about the big storm headed our way and that it was going to dump 4-6 inches of snow on us. Now in comparison to the snowfalls in places like Chicago, Minnesota, Milwaukee, Detroit and the like, that’s not a big deal, but for Portland it’s a lot and things pretty much shut down here. We got up this morning to this: (click to enlarge)
It’s very light, dry snow, but at 31 degrees it’s sticking on the ground and makes a pretty picture. This will melt later today, then freeze tonight. Could be pretty icy tomorrow.
Also, the bookshelves are almost done. I may or may not have a Friday Forgotten Book for tomorrow, need to finish the book today and the new shelves are calling. Look for a bookshelves part II post tomorrow or Saturday.

Not deep here, either, but I managed to fishtail several times driving down residential streets. Also won $190 at the casino. Added to the $75 last time I’m about even again.
Big Storm…4 to 6 inches! Surely you jest. It takes over a foot of snow to qualify as a Big Storm in these parts.
Yeah George, I know, but as I said in the post, for Portland it’s a lot. We only get one or two of these a year, it’s mostly rain here.
we’re getting 4-6 on top of 3 and on top of 12. Where on earth will we put it?
When it melts it will cause plenty more troubles.
Washington, D.C. gets much less snow, Patti.
They say it might snow in San Francisco–the first time in 35 years.
