Okay, the drough i sover and it is now raining fairly hard again. Not quite like early this morning ... but it's still early

A little bit of rain never hurt anyone.
But a whole ....... bunch can kill you!

Glad I made it out there before the river went. It seemed the harder it rained and blew yesterday, the more willing the coho were! I think I need an automatic bailing pump in the driftboat.

LOL Reminds me of 1996. Scrambling like a looter to the WSLCB store and 4 of us bringing out an armload each and making it back before the highway closed. 4 couples cooped up in a house for 3 days straight with a few decks of cards and a lot of mixer. Passing out on top of each other.
The 90's sure were fun!

3 1/4" in my rain guage since yesterday afternoon(Montesano). It is an absolute DELUGE as I type this. Then, the fun begins tonight around 10 when the sustained 50+ mph winds kick in.

Generator full of gas......check.
Power cords ready........check.
Candles ready..............check.
Matches/flashlight.........check.
Cell phone alarm
to wake up in morning.....check.
Whiskey & Coke in
good supply..................check.

Hope everyone comes through it one piece!

Patron......................ALWAYS Patron!

Just strting to go into overdrive now ... wind has been light from the NE for a few hours, now back to normal big blow SE direction and the screens are rattling. The rain went from heavy, to a solid sheet of water

Got the fire & big screen going and the dog at my feet ... Corey, U didn't read the last part

WOW,
I think the weather service may have underestimated this one, strap em down and head for high ground !

pressure, wind, gust

all hell seems to be breaking loose here in N hoquiam. yard's full of standing water, but that happens any time it rains. i just hope i still have all my shingles when i wake up tomorrow!

Temp now up 10 degrees and .50 in the last hour at Quillayute ...

Lights just blinked. Get ready................

Just tested the genset here and topped off on gas @ Costco. Seems like we lose power on each major storm here in Woodinmilf these days.


Stay safe out there on the coast, looks like a pretty good blow.

Buddy in Tokeland is recording 45-50 sustained with gusts to 70.

Hoping his newly shingle-sided house doesn't look like a power-washed platinum coho in the morning!

been there, done that!!!

Pretty tame here right now, light rain and very little wind, but it must be warm and raining up high because the river has come up far more than predicted. Had to hook a strap on the jet boat and just pull it up into the yard to above the high tide mark.

i saw that to
figured it may be wise not to notice too much

Fish were definitely willing yesterday...duc held good despite 3+ inches of rain....Kev, Addicted, and myself went out of salmon season in style!

How is the boy addicted doing?

I'm doing fine, but man did we have a big blow for a couple hours last night, one tree broke half way up and down she came. We've had no power since 10 last night, so down here at the 1504 coffee shop I sit to drink my coffee and read a little internet. I'll swing by your place and check on all your new debris I'm sure you have laying in the yard.
