Still saying snow for me, but just a little. Don't worry, it's only December and not even technically winter yet...plenty of time for us to get snowbound and lose our minds.

[mirth]

Oh, I'm not worried. I'm just glad this next storm is looking like rain in Portland. I need new tires and they're not going on the car until Wednesday.

[Gusington]

So according to what you just said and Fate, Portland should now receive about 4 inches of ice tomorrow night.

[mirth]

I expect so.

[Gusington]

I will standby.

Weird weekend.  We left Amsterdam, flew to Frankfurt and then to the Atlanta Airport.  Atlanta had more snow on the ground than Southern Germany on Saturday.  There was even a light (temporary) accumulation of snow in Auburn.

You better hope Bruce Dern's not flying that thing.

I always wanted to be a blimp pilot. Imagine how many girls blouses you could look down from up there.  :bd:

[mirth]

Fuck me. 15F is cold.

it's only 40° here, so not even freezing.  But man is it a biting cold - windy and dry and painful.
