Going to be a typical but interesting November - from Cliff Mass:
A Very Stormy November Ahead
For the Northwest, November is the stormiest month of the year by almost every measure.
A month in which strong low-pressure areas or midlatitude cyclones move off the Pacific Ocean towards our region.
The next week is going to be extraordinarily active and it will be a miracle if western Washington or western Oregon escapes one of the big blows.
Fast forward to this:
Had enough? Sorry.
The most impressive storm is just offshore on Monday afternoon, and it is VERY deep, with a central pressure of 951 hPa. Deeper than the famed Columbus Day Storm. Sustained winds of 50-65 knots. You don't want to know about the gusts.
Oregon coast is going to bear the brunt.
Warm and cloudy - spitting rain off and on. Heading out to get the mail and some groceries.
Time to batten down the hatches.
