This reminds me of an AskMe question I was tempted to post:

... and do you have jumper cables? I'm at 19th and Stark and it's cold...
We're having a hella cold winter here, aren't we? And none of last year's rain. Just cold, foggy, gray days. Depressing stuff.

Oh, on the bright side in PDX is Sunday's Handmade Bazaar. I'll be there, shopping for various knitted things among the holier-than-thou hipster set.

Speaking of the local weather, I really hope there's a repeat of last year's ice apocalypse. That was awesome.
Uh, also, next Thursday the Portland Underground Film Festival starts, and I'm told it should be a good time.

Matt, word. I've been trying to put down some cycling miles and have been coming back cold as a mofo.
It's a wonder that more people don't have SAD here...
...and here's some more midvalley (corvallis) love.

Hey, Matt, believe it or not, I was planning on going to the Holiday Bazaar on Sunday as well ... want to do a MeFi Meetup?
I really hope that there isn't a repeat of last year's ice apocalypse. I now live in a place where, if it's icy, I can not leave my driveway under any circumstances (too steep...).

Porland here, and less than ten blocks from George Spiggot, aparently.
And yeah, I've got jumper cables.

I'm just down the freeway in Longview where nothing ever happens.

we live on a small acreage in the hills and more days than not it seems, these past weeks, the fog stays through the whole day and I can't see more than a 100 feet. It sure feels colder. I'm kinda hoping for another crazy weather system, if only so my girls can get in some sledding. I could do without an inch of ice on my cars (still haven't gotten around to building that garage...).

I welcome our recurring ice-tastrophe overlords. I live downtown; I walk to work (MAX a few blocks if I'm lazy and the timing is right); I don't give two figs about traffic conditions, and the low-friction antics of others provides me with cheap and plentiful entertainment.
Gleeful, mocking, gawking shock at Portlanders' collective inability to deal with freezing-weather road conditions is probably the one thing I'm glad to have taken from living in Worcester.
