Not all the way but a couple decent wins for Oregon. Last February and March was incredible. IMBY I would take that stretch over 2019. I had literally no expectations for this winter so this stretch which will end up 35/26, 26/15, 24/14, 26/16, 33/15 along with 10" of snow going back to the 6th is just gravy.

TT-SEA Posted January 17 Report Share Posted January 17 20 minutes ago, the_convergence_zone said: Same happened to my coastal strawberries — and those are a fairly hardy native plant with waxy leaves. I assume they will grow back but they are all dead on top for now. Most native vegetation and all the fruit trees in the PNW require below freezing time to thrive. This is good. If someone plants things damaged permanently by cold then those plants probably won't last long anyways. Rhodies aren't native to this area... but wow do they thrive here. They will go into their droopy frozen look during cold but then pop right back up as soon as it warms up. On other note... we have seen stink bugs coming into the house this winter. We have never seen that before. These bugs are not native and accidentally arrived in Allentown, PA from Asia around 2010 and have spread across most the country now. But I read this cold will kill off most of them. Obviously they will come back, but cold like this is good for keeping all kinds of things in check! 8 Quote **REPORTED CONDITIONS AND ANOMALIES ARE NOT MEANT TO IMPLY ANYTHING ON A REGIONAL LEVEL UNLESS SPECIFICALLY STATED** Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blizzard777 Posted January 17 Report Share Posted January 17 5 hours ago, The Ms. Anthrop said: Good luck to you as well, I hope you've got it mitigated and fixed! Ours is going to be quite expensive, me thinks. There was definitely a leak in the control room because the spray of water took the fire control panel out; the FD finally just turned off the alarm a couple of hours ago so they don't have to come back and check it every time. And as the fire suppression system is totally off, it means that we get to do hourly "fire watch" checks of the building. Other than that, we don't know if any of the other pipes have been affected... which worries me greatly given we don't know when we can get someone in to check. Oh, and the HOA president is out of town so it's me and couple of other folks trying to bodge together a fix. LOL good thing I have an excellent homeowners policy with USAA. All this hassle and no snow to show for it. Not sure I want mother nature to throw us the bone of an ice storm at this point. BOO. I think you win! Lol and ugh. Good news my end as the area i mended held….bad news is two more sprung up downstream from that one!!!! I’ll address those another day as it was a long day in the garage going through damaged stuff.

Too bad those ash borers aren't killed off by the cold. The Willamette Valley is full of native ash and in 10 years they will all be dead. Talk about an extreme fire hazard. Can't use them for firewood either because transporting the wood spreads the insect. I guess Oregon State has millions of seeds they are saving so they can replant once the infestation runs its course. This may at least kill the murder hornets. 3 1 Quote Snowfall Precip 2022-23: 95.0" 2022-23: 17.39" 2021-22: 52.6" 2021-22: 91.46" 2020-21: 12.0" 2020-21: 71.59" 2019-20: 23.5" 2019-20: 58.54" 2018-19: 63.5" 2018-19: 66.33" 2017-18: 30.3" 2017-18: 59.83" 2016-17: 49.2" 2016-17: 97.58" 2015-16: 11.75" 2015-16: 68.67" 2014-15: 3.5" 2013-14: 11.75" 2013-14: 62.30 2012-13: 16.75" 2012-13: 78.45 2011-12: 98.5" 2011-12: 92.67" It's always sunny at Winters Hill!
