And Yet Another Weather Advisory


This one is for freezing fog. This makes driving treacherous because one cannot see the roadway ahead plus the road is icy. I may need to reschedule some of what I'd planned to do today.

P.S. Happy, happy birthday, Owen!

Another Weather Warning


The wind storm apparently caused a fair amount of problems last night. Many thousands of people lost their electric. We were lucky. We had a couple of blips last night in the restaurant, lost the electric all together for a few minutes, but it came back on and has stayed on. So far.

Now the weather service is predicting a flood watch:

* A powerful storm system was moving into Washington and Oregon Thursday. Rain has decreased some Thursday afternoon but will increase again Thursday night as a strong cold front moves across the area....Rain will taper off late tonight and cold air will move into the region Friday. Rainfall totals from this storm are expected to total 3 to 5 inches along the coast. The Willamette Valley will see 2 to 3 inches of rain*
