There’s also a fairly decent wind storm coming in tonight - 45mph gusts predicted.

It’s going to be an interesting week in the Washington PNW…

I am glad my gutters are clean and I am on the hill and the house is reinforced by pin piles. There have been mudslides nearby almost every time this happens. My best wishes go out to folks in beautiful Skagit ...
