    We now have 3 inches of snow at 10:50 PM :(

    Clackamas is quit a ways from me and a lot lower in elevation so the temp is higher than what I really am. Our outside temp at the house is 29F

    Yea it's a pretty rare sight even here. The ocean water stays a pretty constant 40-45 deg. Not good for swimming even in the summer months.

    How many feet of snow is that up at higher elevations ? The local news here said something about areas out west getting 8-9 feet of snow.

    That's a lot of rain in one day. We've been hearing on TV about all the wild weather you've been having in the Pacific Northwest.

    Woke up early to the rains, man really coming down. It's gets exciting sometimes here in the Paxific Northwest.

    Well Maddog came over yesterday and brought his buffer with him and he polished and buffed the new bike for me, man he is a really nice guy. :D

    We also drilled out the stock trunk hinges and installed those newer nice chrome trunk hinges. Couldn't get a better friend. :) I think between him and Olbill were gonna do some great riding this year.

    That is about as close to a ride story as I can get. :)

    Yea, we got 3 feet at the house. Last night a car driven by a family got swept out of a shopping center parking lot and into a ragging over flowing creek. Two made it out but one and a child in a car seat we're swept down and into a culvert under the street. They still have not found them. Lots of rain and melting snow. :(
