If you were planning on taking advantage of this snow day by breaking out the skates and doing some outdoor skating at Hillsboro's Orenco Station Plaza, you're going to need to readjust your plans. That's because the skating rink is closed today, according to a tweet put out by the City of Hillsboro, "due to anticipated snow and ice."

It's just like Alanis said, "It's like too much ice at your ice rink."

Note: That is not a line in the Alanis Morissette song "Ironic," but it should be.

The Hillsboro Tribune reported the tweet, saying that the rink, the only open-air ice rink in the Portland area, is expected to open again tomorrow. Tomorrow, of course, it's expected to rain. Today is the snow day. Just imagine ice skating in the snow. Now stop imagining it because it's not going to happen.
