8:20 a.m. update: Forest Service just gave an update to firefighters. The current acreage of the #GoatRocksFire is 1500. According to Andrea Durham with USFS there would need to be "major fire movement" in order for officials to update the evacuation notices. 1/3

When will precipitation start? The onset will be spotty and gradual today. Most locations will start as snow or sleet, but some could start with freezing rain. Expect widespread freezing rain tonight and Friday. #orwx #wawx #pdxtst #WinterStorm #ArcticFront #PNWArcticFront

Exciting news! We’re asking Lee Enterprises to voluntarily recognize our advertising department’s petition to join our union. These folks work hard and we couldn’t do our jobs without them.

Mount St. Helens erupted 43 years ago today, and the Toutle River is still recovering. I love getting a chance to learn about the resiliency of nature and how humans are helping.

The Daily News just made the change to printing three days a week. The rollout so far has not made us less worried about Lee's short-sighted moves and lack of real investment in our staff. #LeeUnionsRaisingAwareness

Thank you to Mallory and Don McIntosh for highlighting and spreading the word about this effort. Lee Enterprises needs to invest in local newsrooms so we can better serve our communities. #LeeUnionsRaisingAwareness
