[PSAS] Weather advisory, Tuesday 11-Jan-2011 meeting canceled?

2011-01-11 Thread Glenn LeBrasseur
I just talked to Andrew (6 pm) and he thinks the weather is bad enough 
to cancel tonight's meeting. I'm in SE Portland right now and there is 
freezing rain coming down, and it seems to be sticking on the road. 
Temperature is 30 deg F here.

It certainly could get bad enough. I'm net control for KD7ZDO at the 
moment, Clackamas ARES, we're running a weather reporting net (I'm 
running it from my home station - listen to 147.12 to hear me, or 147.32 
for all NW Oregon/District 1). It seems to be getting colder with light 
precip everywhere. Near the gorge people are getting some icing.

Well, those of us willing to brave the conditions will be here - and some in
fact are already!

There is still a winter advisory, but it appears most of the moisture 
moved through. The NWS doesn't have anything more to collect from the 
the ham weather spotters and we've closed our nets.


I'd be watchful for slick patches here and there, especially just W of 
the Columbia Gorge, but I don't expect there to be a skating rink on the 
roads tonight.


Cheers,
James
