Description
An ice storm is expected to hit Portland in the final few days before Christmas, dumping large amounts of sleet or freezing rain on the metro area, the Willamette Valley and Southwest Washington amid frigid temperatures. KGW meteorologist Rod Hill explains why we'll see ice rather than snow.
