Re: PNW about to get pounded
Yep. Seems to be some question whether it will be influenced North near the coast or come closer and end up with 70MPH winds.

Re: PNW about to get pounded
Experiencing the calm before the storm now... been beautiful clear skies and no wind all morning and just now cirrocumulus clouds are starting to move across the sky in south Puget Sound.

Oh goodie, maybe I'll get a chance to excercise my grid tie / LiFePo4 backup system!

Re: PNW about to get pounded
Dang I'm in Cuba, boat is at Swantown Olympia.
Little early for a storm like this.
If anybody is around Swantown walk by D26 and have a look thanks.
