The high winds and saturated grounds pushed trees into power lines causing numerous power outages throughout Oregon and northern California keeping power companies busy with the dangerous work of restoring power in the harsh elements.

Snow hampered driving for travelers over the weekend with feet of snow accumulated in some areas.
