The Blob

I don't remember it being that windy for Labor day 2020. What mostly sticks is the smoke then the inversion we had at PDX. It was so bad one morning coming home from work I didn't see the giant highway sign for the 205/84 split till I was under it. I also put on GPS because I wasn't sure if I would get lost or not. I could barely see the lane stripes as well.

Happy birthday to me.

Currently 51 here in Troutdale.

Finally get to watch the sunrise as it's been too cloudy.

Looks like SoCal had quite the lighting show going on tonight.

Almost 100 pages for this month!

I only have traffic on the 205, once I'm on the 84 I'm good. I'm south of Helen's.

Got a great shot of Helen's while sitting in traffic.

Woke up to sun and 65°, it's going to be a great day till I have to go to work.

I have 3 boxes, I'm ready!

Good to know of a great place to go to.

Once it cleared out the day was quite nice.

Looks like something fun to the south of PDX.

Caught this earlier.

I don't like mustard and ketchup. I also don't eat hotdogs and hamburgers. @PhilI've been vegetarian for 20 years because of texture and taste of meats.

Sitting at 56 right now.

Good to know

Mt.Hood looked nice on the way to work today.

Look, San Diego is it's own state and no one really cares about that hole. If you want to see high averages, talk about cities that aren't San Diego, LA, San Francisco or Sacramento. There are much more reputable cities to talk about the extremes in weather.

Do you guys think if I set out the Christmas decorations now we'll end up with an epic winter?

I was going of whatever app I was using at the time. Still, cold and 40mph and it was coming in around the door frame of my apartment.

You should come out to Troutdale when it's windy. I remember going to the Fairview Fred Meyers in January 2017 when it hit 11 that night. 50mph winds and my phone said it felt like -5.
