I really enjoyed @nerd4cities’s even-keeled review of inner #Portland , and especially the part about the city’s (heretofore secret) plan to revert one of the best cycling infrastructure changes it’s done downtown, ever, all to appease a few hoteliers.

I walk and bike through downtown Portland 5+ days a week and what the media loves talking about simply doesn’t match reality.

The sun is setting over the west hills of Portland Oregon. Storm clouds are passing to the north and more are coming from the south. The sun peeks through a spot of blue sky between the clouds.
Light from the sunset shines on the neighborhood on the west side of Mt Tabor. There are clouds in the sky from a recent atmospheric river. This is a brief break in the rain.

Periods of clouds and sun today, breezy with showers and t-storms. High near 17°C. Another system tomorrow though this one will be weaker. Showers taper off Friday and we’re looking at a sunny albeit cool weekend.

Next chance of rain comes Monday. Highs remaining around 16°-18°C for the forecast period with lows 8°-11°C.

02:50 Wednesday - Heavy rain is ending across the #Portland metro and we are transitioning into a more showery regime. Showers and possible t-storms, some with heavy rain, are possible all day.

The best food value in #Portland (non vegetarian class) continues to be fried chicken and jojos from Reel M Inn - they've held this title for at least 20 years running and it isn't close. Price aside, their food exposes the yuppie Screen Door and lightweight hipster latelies like Baes and Holler as the pretenders they are - trust your Southern boi, it takes awhile but that's normal when it comes to the real thing, this is levels beyond #pdxfood

18:10 Tuesday - The incoming low is shaping up quite nicely offshore with lightning near the center indicating rapid intensification. Likely to land near Aberdeen but the cold front trailing south will bring heavy rain and gusty winds to the #Portland metro early Wednesday.

I have a big request for feedback. I'm part of an NSF-funded project building games to teach people about earthquake preparedness. We're in the brainstorming / planning stage for the third game, and I'd love input from people here. Here's a document describing the unusual design challenges:

I've had so much success #gardening #pumpkins that I have a feeling that I could just scatter the seeds around and they would just fully take care of themselves.

Next year I think I might do just that; sprout all the seeds from this year's crop, and just wander around #Portland sticking them in the corners of people's yards and planters, just anywhere it looks like they might get water.

#Portland #weather
September 26, 2023

Rain showers and t-storms, especially after 15:00. A strong but small low will likely make landfall tonight but uncertainty remains on where.

If it tracks close to Portland, wind gusts up to 70 km/h are possible early tomorrow but with large geographic variability. Most models place the center in Washington which would produce gusts to 50 km/h here. In either case, heavy rain is likely.

Remaining showery through Friday.

I've been walking around with a huge grin on my face all day because of the #rain, but I keep talking to people who are depressed about it.

Along with the release of macOS Sonoma, you should also see an update to PDX Transit for macOS with some nice UI updates such as

• The new full-height Inspector sidebar
• a unified toolbar (no more accessory view toolbar)
• and a horizontal split view for Service Alerts.

It's already been approved but the update should start rolling out tomorrow around 10am.

#portland #trimet #macOS #PDXTransit #transit

So #Portland voters approved a change to the City charter last go-round.

And predictably every shitty white supremacist who it's "rude" to call a white supremacist despite the constant white supremacist nonsense ("population control" and flipping their shit about denser housing) is angry about it.

Now, it's Neighborhood Associations. You know, what we fund with our taxpayer dollars despite not all NAs being open to renters or, in some cases, a neighborhood with no NA. I live in one. The process of replacing a dead NA is Byzantine, and involves lots of people who don't respond to polite emails and calls and that's where it ends.

The most dreadful white people are losing their shit about something voters *already approved*.

I don't know how to say it in as many words, but your "polite" racist friends aren't gonna change until white people start standing up to whackadoo made-up shit. This is a Your Racist Friend problem. You can't shake the Devil's hand...

Here's a nice tip for downtown #Portland lunch in the rainy season for coffee drinkers. The rebuilt carts at 5th and Stark/Harvey Milk are very nice, but they don't have a true covered area. Take your food up to Forte at 6th and Washington and buy a coffee! They're pretty good, and they welcome outside food. It's comfy, they have free water and even a pool table! It's a great hookup and I never see anyone else doing it. #pdx

Rain continues off and on through Friday before possibly drying out for the weekend. Highs remaining below 20°C.

So only #Portland residents will get this, but…

The amount of parking at the Lloyd Center is INSANE!!! 5 stories of parking in a massive garage…and that's just on **one** side of the building!

Obviously, I expect any revitalization plan that ends up going through for the mall remodel will *dramatically* reduce the amount of parking here. There's just no need for it, it's completely bananas and has no relevance to modern urbanism. 😅

Humans of #Portland! I signed a ton of copies of New Mutants Vol. 4 at Books with Pictures and a ton of copies of the Unstoppable trilogy at Powells. With terrible doodles! 💖
