Looks like Ocean Beach. We were there in December. Is the pier still closed?

Thanks for that link. I skimmed through it and found it to be quite interesting. -

Still light rain and 34. Nothing frozen here except for the ground under the coating of fresh rain. -

Possibly, but I was mostly referring to my location. -

Just raining here in Fircrest and 34. I don't see us getting any freezing rain at all. It generally has to be below freezing when the precipitation starts for the liquid to freeze. So I'm not sure why there was so much talk of freezing rain coming by some. The frozen ground really isn't making a difference. Unless things change when the heavier precipitation moves in, this is a non-event. Lame. -

That's not good! I have a sister and brother-in-law who live near Edmonton. -

So we're a victim of the incredible cold air. That's why I prefer snow over extreme cold. But I understand some people really like it cold. However it appears that areas around Portland are experiencing both. Maybe we can next time.... -

Hope you're right! I was just going to say that it's not going to snow in Tacoma today, but maybe still a slight chance?? Otherwise this is LAME...as someone else would say, haha. -

Cold temps might kill some plants also. Interesting that the new USDA hardiness zones map just came out which shifted zones either 1/4 or 1/2 a zone to the north, and now we get hit with a very cold air mass! https://planthardiness.ars.usda.gov/ -

I can now report that there are some light flurries here as well. Kind of weird though, there are broken clouds overhead. Must be wringing every bit of moisture out of them. -

I know it's just weather, and I'm being overly dramatic, but I'm with Randy on this one. Cold air without snow is such a waste! Send all the weenies you want everybody....
