On top of the waterlogged earth in many places

record setting 75mph gusts in Spokane region but affecting many in Eastern Wash.

Hole up if you can. Please use caution. Wind sustained around 50mph. Power out for over 50k and rising.

It's is/going to be a mess.

Checked in with the kids at about 5am. We tend to keep power when others loose theirs.

So far so good.

You rock.
