Portland Winter Weather Trend – Will It Happen Again?
It’s happened twice this winter, already.
Can we go for three in a row?
Check out this graphic–the second half of each month mother nature is taking off her gloves and throwing down the gauntlet!

Take That California: Portland, Oregon, The Driest In The Western U.S.
I may have uncovered the craziest little weather fact there is about Portland’s dry and sunny start to February 2012.
I just ran the numbers from the first seven days of February–and it turns out Portland is drier than Seattle, San Francisco, San Diego and even Los Angeles!

I had just reached the top of a hill as I drove to meet my wife and kids for dinner last night.
Suddenly–it caught my eye.
