Well, so far, we've not had anything worse than a study rain, but when I saw the weather coming out of the Aleutians that formed this cyclone bomb I think back to 1949-50 blizzard which took place from Washington to the Northwest states, that was wild and then in the early 1960's, when I was stationed at Mc Cord AFB in Tacoma, Washington, there was the Columbus Day wind storm, winds strong enough to strip paint off of a canopy on the back of the pickup we were using to pick up ground support equipment from around the C-124 Globemaster cargo planes and they were all running their engines facing the prevailing wind, I'm pretty sure those two storms also started in the Aleutians as well. I will say this, this is the most rain we've had for many years as we've been in a long drought period, the first day of this storm also brought our first snow, but as of yesterday the snow at our elevation melted away, still some in the higher elevations.
