Rain City Madness



Linky dinky

So it's been raining for a solid five days. i didn't think much of it, didn't think it was that unusual here. I'm the new guy, so I'm just going with the flow. Well, it turns out it's serious after all. We're up on the ridge, but in lower Snoqualmie they've shut down the elementary school and moved tomorrow's polling place up higher, to the fire station.

The governor has declared disaster area status, and an elk hunter was found dead when he was swept into the river by floodwaters. Eeks. Trees are falling, there was a mudslide, there's standing water all over the place.

So...we picked a good time to move.
