Oregon Dry Spell
The sun reflects off the Willamette River as it passes under the Hawthorne Bridge in downtown Portland, Ore., Thursday, Oct. 4, 2012. It�s sunny in the Pacific Northwest, even on the usually damp western side of the Cascade Range. A forecaster calls the three-month dry spell that has aggravated the wildfire season extraordinary.
