Wow, the coast has really been hit hard with wind. The rain has been pretty good here in Portland but thankfully the wind never came as expected. It's pretty amazing how different things are just on the other side of the coast range.

We were near the coast when the winds started on sunday, and within about 15 minutes 5 trees were down on the property we were at and power was out in the town. High-tailed it home to Portland to batten down the hatches, and the winds never really made it.

Watching the Northwest River Forecast Center is always interesting. Some rivers are over twice their flood stage.
