...we're having huge floods here! Really, really bad. Here are some of the photos. It's been raining for days, 10" to the south of us, and 6" in Seattle.

I feel for you! I can look back an laugh now but at the time it was scary! I went through the worst flood of my life (about 8 feet outside my house and about 5 ft inside!) in the late '90s. The funny part was, we had a fish pond filled with Koi and a swimming pool...by the end of the flooding, we had lost the Koi and it was replaced with Terrapins and Guppies and we had Catfish in the pool!!!!

I heard on Public Radio that from 18" or 2 ft have been received in some areas.
Are you staying dry???

I hope all of you are staying safe and dry. I mentioned this to my husband and he isn't happy because this is the storm heading our way. And it will hit just as he is going hunting up in the mountains.

It's flooding here too, they closed part of 410, and mentioned shelter areas..never heard that for this town before. I'm staying home - we are up a big hill from the flooding.

Those are some photos!

It's Tuesday afternoon - and we've now had 40+ straights hours of rain, and it's not letting up. Here is the latest, see any salmon?
No, it's awful. A hunter died - he was swept away! Yes, my house is up in the hills but it took 2.5 hrs to get into work today, like an obstacle course! I did not take this photo.
