Finally dropped to 35.3 so we'll see what happens later. I noticed the PDX stations have had to climb Mt. Hood to find a snow storm.

Evening FTE Oregon and Friends, holding at 38* here on the North Oregon Coast.
I think I may have stumbled across the problem with the lumina found a wire with some missing insulation, if I am reading the wiring diagram right is the wire that powers the injectors.

Good morning Oregon FTE gang and friends.

Chris, I hope you've found your problem with the car... I know it can be frustrating chasing down intermittent problems.

Morning Tiny and all that follow!

Morning Don.

It never quite got below freezing here last night. But it's really close.

Good morning Don, Tiny, and the rest of the Oregon crew! Big day here at the plant. Our graded Emergency Plan excercise. We pass this, and we'll be cleared to start the plant!

It's going to be nice here today, but that changes tonight. Falling temps, freezing rain/drizzle for the drive in tomorrow. Super. Oh, and Thursday's high will be in the teens.

We've had it pretty good so far. I'm hoping this year is much better than last year. I still remember it snowing on May 1st.

Just got a call from my daughter. She lives about 75 miles from here and 3,000' lower. She said they have about two inches of snow, and it's still snowing hard...

I guess it was going to happen sooner or later. So, you should have the last of the mill painted today, right?
