Rain should be changing to snow in a few hours...first snow of the season. 
They're expecting around 3" (twss
)...maybe more, maybe less.

It was due to a temperature inversion [seattletimes.com] so in the lowlands, instead of rain we had freezing ground level fog for most of that time but beautiful sunny days if you were in the mountains.

Also reminds me of when our daughter was born. On the night of 12/11/00, we had an ice storm in Portland. Our house was on quite a steep hill. Wife thought she was in labor; we headed to the hospital around midnight. I knew we wouldn't be able to get back up the hill if we had to return soon. Turns out she wasn't yet in labor; doctor sent us home. Had to park at the bottom of the street and walk (well, try to walk - it was basically a sheet of ice) up the hill the perhaps 400 ft to the house - wife was ~ 8.5 months pregnant. Three hours later, she woke up again; this time, labor had actually started, so we had to walk/slide back down the hill to the car and head to the hospital; she gave birth later than night.

We haven't had any snow or ice at the house this winter, which is unusual, usually we'll have two or three snow falls per winter. The Cascades look quite pretty though with all the snow on them but at our elevation there's nada.
