I was living in Medford by June of '49 but do remember the Columbia River 
freezing over in Dec. of '48. Lived in Montavilla until I was 12 (1840) then in 
Parkrose until 1949. Remember walking to school during the silver thaws and the 
east wind - lots of fun. Missed the rain when I first came down here. Ah, 
nostalgia!

You might recall the winter of '49/50.  It started with
the wind that blew a car carrier off the Columbia
River highway, snowed at Thanksgiving and on the
following mid Jan was 8 above in Portland and 3 above in Seattle with another 
Alaska storm about to hit.

We hit snow to Redding, and Ice down to the
Cartinez straits just out of Martinez CA. that
January.
