  • Your welcome Nathan. Another month gone, where does the time go? Keeping very busy really keeps time moving faster than it should, as dwindling time resources makes for less production. I am retired, I don’t know how I got it all done when I was working! Thanks again Nathan!

  • Kevin Shaw commented on the post, Snowing in Portland!, on the site 8 years ago

    Fairly rare for both Portland and central Maryland to have a similar snow event at just about the same time! Warm mid-40s on Sunday wiped out the snowpack, esp with the stronger sun and increased sun angle. Thanks for posting such a detailed analysis for your snow there in Portland. Have a blast skiing up there on Mt Hood Meadows! Enjoy! Kevin
