we got downy to 12 degrees here in portland. only a few inches at most of frozen rain. but it has not gotten above 25 since Saturday. we don't clear roads very well here.
Not much better up in Seattle. But I'm somewhat glad it hasn't gotten above freezing yet, as it means the roads are easier to drive/ride on than if they go through melt/freeze cycles like is common in the PNW.
I'm impressed with the heat pump we had installed a couple years ago for the house though. It's been able to keep up with just a bit of help from the gas furnace in the mornings. So as the local energy company that supplies our gas has been telling folks to conserve, especially in the evenings, we've already been barely touching the stuff. Our house could use better insulation though.
