"Ice Storm Forces Closure of I-84 in Columbia River Gorge"
TL;DR
Oregon is bracing for a second round of freezing rain, prompting road closures and transportation disruptions, including the closure of Interstate 84 in the Columbia River Gorge and the shutdown of TriMet's MAX light-rail lines. Downed trees and power lines have caused road closures in Portland, with the winter storm expected to impact travel across the state. Power outages and fuel shortages are also affecting residents, with many roads still covered in snow and ice from the weekend.
