This week’s snow accumulation in Portland surprised many. A total of 10.8 inches of snow was recorded at Portland International Airport, where official records have been kept since 1939. A massive snowstorm dropped about 16 inches of snow in 1937, which pre-dates the official snowfall totals recorded at the airport. Take a look at how Oregonians handled extreme weather in the past.
