Oops

The weatherman predicted we’d get a “dusting of snow” early Tuesday morning as a “weak front” moved through the area. Boy were the weather folks wrong.

When I left the house at 4am, it was bone dry. Around the time I hit the 3 mile point of my 6-mile run, I was seeing snow flurries. By the time I hit the 4.5 mile point, it was sleeting. And by 7am, we had an inch of a snow/ice mix on the ground.

School was soon cancelled and I worked from home while Becky took care of the undeniably harder task of entertaining snow day kids.

The weather got progressively worse through the day and, long story short, Portland shut down. Pac NW residents don’t see much snow so it’s a problem when we get hit.

Maybe it was God’s way of preventing a cataclysm. Afterall, Brad Schultz was in town and everyone knows what happens when matter and anti-matter meet (Brad was stuck downtown and I, in the hills).

School was cancelled today too and Becky took some great pix/video while I was working (my company gets faster when everyone telecommutes – busiest day I’ve had in awhile).

Here’s some video of the adventures. Credit goes to Becky for all pix/video (and snow days fun). We’re supposed to get hit with an ice storm tomorrow night but then dry out and warm up to 40. It’ll be a sloppy mess here on Sunday.
