Spring Snow

Snow? In late March? In Portland, OR?

Yep.

It's not a very common thing, but it does happen. Not that it's going to stick around - it's mostly slush (snow/rain mix), but the grassy areas are white, even though the streets are only wet. Of course, if it drops below freezing, the roads could be hazardous. But that's not very likely. At least at this point.

However, this is not the latest snow has fallen on Portland before. I remember driving around on July 4th one year and seeing snow falling in one of the neighborhoods on the East side. Yep - snow on July 4th. Bizarre, but true.

At least it's Friday, so if it does stick around, I won't have to worry about going to work tomorrow...
