Big storm here in western Washington

[Trailrider1951]

We just lost power. High winds, heavy rain, lightening and thunder, unusual for this area. Please stay safe, my West coast peeps!

1. Where?

I am in Sequim on the Strait of Juan de Fuca and the wind and rain have stopped - feels weird. We might miss it though.

4. I'm southeast of Tacoma

I haven't seen a storm like this since I left Texas

3. Happening here

Over by tacoma to.
At least the lights are still on at this time but we can hear stuff hitting the roof we're surrounded by trees.

5. The lack of light doesn't bother me

As my house is all electric, I now cannot cook dinner until the power is restored. And my only source of heat is the cat on my lap. Nice kitty!

6. Eugene: two big branches down

From the fir tree in my back yard. Nothing damaged, just a mess to clean up. High wind warning in effect until 5am (PDT) tomorrow.

7. It's pretty crazy here in Oakland, too.

Raining like crazy, and I almost couldn't open my car door because of the wind. I'm so happy for the rain, but I have to worry that people in the hills may have their houses slide.

8. Oh no

Hubby heading that direction for his job.
From the east side currently just wet drizzly rain here. Hope the passes stay ok for his travel.
Another poster earlier said their was outages but at that time they were not in the are he stays during the week.
I will have to ask my family members that live over there how they are faring.
What area are you?

10. I'm southeast of Tacoma

The rain and wind have slacked off for now. There are leaves everywhere but no trees down in my neighborhood. I hope that's the end of it but probably not. This storm is huge. 😱

12. Thanks

He will be near Tacoma. This weather will make for a wet work week for him.

11. Just north of you in King County. Lights flickered a couple of times but no outages yet.

Keeping fingers crossed. Have seen some wind gusts, but didn't last long yet.

Stay safe!

13. Power's out here on central Oregon coast due to high winds.

14. Our power went out for a few seconds but came back on again

Lots of rain, wind, and noise but nothing worse yet. I haven't bothered to reset the clock yet as I expect the power will go out again soon.

We're in Kirkland.

15. Sending you good energy! Hunker down and stay safe.

Keep checking in when you can!

16. Stay safe.

The sun it out

18. Getting hit hard now in Davis.

It was fun for a bit but now I'd like it turned down please.

Apparently it's due to increase later, more rain than I've seen in years.

20. ....We Lost Power...

....Here in Lynnwood, but it is back on now........really a very early storm for our area........

21. The rain is great

I do worry about flooding and mudslides, but if those are limited this is huge for the whole region. Not only ending fire season, but filling the rivers and streams to flow to the big reservoirs to replenish them.

[Trailrider1951]

22. Well the power is still off

And it's 8 pm. So, I'm down the road at the local pizza joint in Orting. No chain, locally owned. I'm having a veggie deluxe for dinner. Beats going hungry

23. Brief outage north of Seattle but not bad. The coast is wild.

I understand the waves are up to 40 feet in Southern WA and Oregon.
