Wow! Glad you and your abode came thru OK. No fun for everyone else, 
though.

Stay dry!

  Here in north Seattle 13 of the 25 lower units in my complex ?have 
been flooded, all but one requires immediate move out so that units can 
be cleaned and sanitized, and carpets and sheet rock replaced, 
electrical checked out and repainted.? I am among the lucky 12 who did 
not get flooded.? One ?top floor unit had water in light fixtures from a 
small roof leek? Red Cross has been out to help people with temporary 
housing, clothing and food.? The city has been here in several 
capacities because of the flooding.? Now when I move I think I will try 
to get a second floor unit.? All roads around here were closed for 
several hours, because of the flooding which meant bus service was at 
least a half mile away and spotty at best untill about 3:30. Today was 
windy, and still very soggy in places, but thankfully not flooding.

  Just damp as hell down here in Vancouver although I-5 both ways is 
closed from
  just past Chehalis to just below Olympia and there's a wash-out 
preventing
  north- and south-bound AMTRAK trains from doing there thing just a bit 
north of
  here. Otherwise, no damage that I can figure; its worse up north and 
on the
  Oregon and Washington coasts.

  Did we all make it through the storm??
  I talked with folks in Aberdeen and learned that the entire area is 
out of
  power.? They are in their 80's, but said they'd dressed warmly and 
were doing
  just fine on tuna fish and white bread.? Yuk!?
  Out here on the Great Olympic Peninsula, we had about 9 inches of 
snow.? But
  just about the end of the Sea Hawks game the snow became rain.? And 
such rain it
  was.? It is still raining.? I walked down the road to Rippley Creek 
and was
  amazed at the roar coming from that gentle stream.? But we only had a 
few
  branches over the road and no trees down close to our house.? I'll 
have to wait
  until it calms down a bit before I hike up to the water tank to check 
out that
  trail.?
  Poor little Raccoons.? They huddle on the deck, pressed up against the 
wall of
  the house.? I wonder if I opened the door a crack if they'd sneak in 
to dry
  their tiny toes??
  Stay dry, warm and safe.?
