Cliff Mass has an update - TL;DR - landfall Monday in a weakened state.
The Storm's Future is Now Known
The models have converged to a consistent solution, the storm is beginning to "bomb", and I can now provide a forecast with some confidence.
This will be the strongest Northwest storm on record, but its strength will collapse as it approaches the coast of Vancouver Island. More quickly than any storm in my experience.
And there will be strong winds over land, but not from the south, but from the east, as air is pulled westward by the immense, powerful storm offshore.
Strong Easterly winds which is good for the island house - I face due North and Northerly winds cause a lot of spray on the side of the house. Easterly is a lot better. Southern is best.
8PM Sunday for landfall. Should be interesting to say the least. So far, no power outages to speak of.
