This island is trying to kill me

| No Comments

Looking forward to moving this summer.  The pipes finally thawed so there is runnning water but then this little nugget shows up in the weather forecast:

High Wind Warning from SAT 10:00 PM PST until SUN 11:00 PM PST
WHAT...Southeast winds 35 to 45 mph with gusts up to 65 mph expected.

And of course:

IMPACTS...Damaging winds will blow down trees and power lines. Widespread power outages are expected. Travel will be difficult, especially for high profile vehicles.

Got the candles out and a book to read.  Weather radio and a ham walkie-talkie (the local repeaters are solid). Flashlights are always scattered around the house. The forecast says 10:00PM but it's blowing pretty hard right now - 20's with gusts to 35.

Hope to hell that nobody is driving over the Deception Pass bridge this evening (here's one reason why)
