Portland and Vancouver set new November Rainfall Records
Sunday, November 26, 2006

Portland and Vancouver both surpassed the old November rainfall records set in 1942 at 2 pm today. Portland as of 2 pm measured 11.60 inches breaking the old record of 11.57 inches. Vancouver tallied 12.93 inches surpassing the old record of 12.92 inches. November 2006 will go into the record books as the wettest ever for these two cities and they join Olympia and Seattle with that recognition. It was good while it lasted and now we are past it.
Watch for those snowflakes . . . .
Mixed rain and snow fell in Clark Country at 4 am this morning before southerly winds took over. The storm has now past our area at 2 pm and colder air is moving inland with some heavy showers. The snow level will slowly drop to the valley floors tonight and I think most areas will see some snow cover if only briefly. After Monday's showers, clearing and much much colder Tuesday and Wednesday with lows in the upper teens and low 20's. Should be exciting. Stay tuned for updates.
