The County has opened 12 shelters — the most locations ever. But keeping more than 1,000 beds available in those shelters requires community help. Anyone who is able and can travel to a shelter site safely is asked to volunteer for a shelter shift. bit.ly/423ZcyA

Stay vigilant. This winter storm may be saving its worst for last with a bout of gnarly freezing rain. Staying off the roads allows crews to tackle ice - the most dangerous form of winter precipitation. We're using all our winter tools: salt, deicer, sand and plows. #orwx #pdxtst
Freezing rain is forecast across northwest OR and southwest WA starting late tomorrow morning, with ice accumulations between 0.10 - 0.50 inch.
⚠️ Prepare for additional tree damage/power outages. Ice will make for EXTREMELY dangerous travel conditions. #ORwx #WAwx
ALT Freezing rain is expected for the Willamette Valley, Southwest Washington, Columbia River Gorge, Hood River Valley, and North/Central Coast Range starting Tuesday morning lasting through early Wednesday morning. Ice accumulations are forecast between 0.10 to 0.50 inch. Stock up supplies for potential power outages and additional falling trees. If you have to travel, slow down and use extra caution.

A deputy used their vehicle’s push bumper to help a pick up truck driver get enough momentum to crest the hill on NE 223rd Ave in Fairview. The driver gave a big 😀 and 👍🏻 for the push. The truck was in danger of sliding down the hill and colliding with a number of cars below.
