I use a 5 gal. paint bucket for a rain gauge, staked out in the back yard. Yesterday I emptied it twice, this morning again, and I ain't going out until this storm blows by.

We had 80 mph gusts yesterday with a 50 mph steady wind, a lull this morning but it's back at it now... about 40 with gusts up to 60 and raining cats and dogs.

Thursday night is supposed to be the big one, winds around 60 with "higher gusts", I've seen it gust at 130 here, but probably not this time.

Any of you other PNW people having fun?... take that snorkel out of your mouth and check in. :p

Hasn't been that bad around here but about the same with lower winds.
Been thinking about driving down to Tigard Or this week.
Maybe not :)

Well it seems you folks are getting similar weather to us at the moment. Half of my patrol time is being taken up with big-wheelers being blown over in the gales :'(

Hope it passes real soon..................

Startin' to get breezy up here, but they are calling for 70+mph winds tomorrow. That should be fun. Then the temps will be back down in the 20s for highs.

I wish it would rain here. I can't remember the last time it rained or snowed here.
