Coincidentally, we just had a scud-running accident here in the Northwest,
not too far from Vancouver, WA (across the river from Portland). Amazingly
enough, three out of four survived.

We headed home to the Seattle area from same fly-in (McMinnville, OR)
a couple hours before the accident aircraft. The front was moving
east at 15 knots, so it didn't take long for the "door to get closed".
Several other friends left McMinnville about the same time as the
accident aircraft, and they couldn't get any further north than
Scappoose, so they landed, borrowed the airport car and got a hotel.
