It wasn’t exactly a scene worthy of Currier & Ives, but residents of some of the outlying parts of Clark County awoke to a dusting of snow today.
There was enough snow to dust decks and lawns, and prompt a flurry of social media posts.
However, in most areas there wasn’t enough for a good snow angel, and arterial roads and commuting weren’t affected.
The National Weather Service in Portland issued a winter weather advisory for elevations above 1,000 feet, in effect through midnight today. It calls for an additional 1 to 6 inches of snow at elevations below 2,000 feet, with as much as a foot at elevations higher than that. Motorists can expect roads at those elevations to be slick.
