An Intense Front, Strong Winds, Heavy Precipitation, Flooding and Big Waves: The Northwest Will Be Hit By Everything
Today will offer something for every meteorological taste, except for sunny and warm.
The front page of the National Weather Service's web page is lit up with almost every imaginable meteorological warning and advisory (see below). High wind warnings, storm warnings, winter weather advisory, high surf advisory, flood warnings, and more.
Been pretty hairy out there. Lots of wind. 74 out in our local area. 3,600 for Puget Sound Electric. 69 in Oregon. About 3,350 in British Columbia. This is not the first storm of the season and the first one usually shakes down anything that can cause an outage. By now, power is pretty much bulletproof. The mighty Stillaguamish has peaked but it is still raining so there should be another peak as the groundwater percolates in.
Fun times indeed.
