I lived in Eugene in the early seventies and I was amazed that Lane County, which is at least twice the size of Massachusetts, had three snowplows, all in the Three Sisters mountain passes. When it snowed in Eugene, it was a disaster.

Apparently they have 20 snowplows now but that still wasn't enough to clear several feet of snow in a hurry. Eugene averages 5 inches of snow a year. It's just a freak winter all up and down the PNW coast.
