Will Portland get almost five inches of rain between Friday morning and Sunday evening? Hmmmm.

All of these are archived rainy weather photos which I've decided to share today, due to the weatherman's dred-filled excitement about what the models predict for the Portland metro area.


I imagine it will begin much like this--in fact, I'll bet it's already like this outside right now. I'll find out soon, when I head for the bus stop.



At some point during the next three days, it will look like this, and worse, if we really do get the predicted five inches.



I took this photo over in Portland's Alphabet District, where I used to live on the top floor of a four-story apartment building. Rainy night, then.
