Where I am staying is on the ridge of the Tualatin Mountains running just west of downtown Portland. The locals just call them the West Hills. The old money lives in the hills. Where I am is at the summit of a pass, and on the slopes of Mt. Sylvania, near the top of which sits Portland Community College. The climate is markedly colder up there than in Portland itself.. The cold east wind out of the Columbia River Gorge hits with full force. The ice we got a couple weeks ago lasted on the ground up there almost a week! But there is a beautiful view of Mt. Hood.

Now the weather is turning colder again and talk of snow is back in the forecasts. Only 44F here in Tigard today, and expected low tonight of 29F! Tigard is down in the valley just to the west. I hear the sound of ice pellets coming down now!

Don't forget, No. 2 Ducks vs. Beavers tonight at 5:00 PST on ABC!

la is cold at night, very cold in the valleys ( always -10 or + 10 deg depending on conditions) and during the day it is warm. So climate cold/warm is very bad, call in the gorebots!

The cold perhaps affected UCLA that played StAnfurd ( disrespected spelling used) who has its stadium up by Silicon Valley, and cold there most of the time, well they got hammered. Looked like too much turkey.


Now we await the cold + rain + cold front from Alaska.
