The weather dweebs are warning about a high wind event Tuesday (11/16) morning through the evening, with sustained winds of up to 40mph and gusts to 60mph. There is also a flood warning due to the anticipated rain. The rain/flood and wind warnings are here http://www.wunderground.com/US/WA/511.html#FLO .
These weather events might cause some power outages and road blockages, in addition to travel effects on the Hood Canal bridge (remember the last big wind storm?).
The Web Guy suggest that today (Monday) would be a good day to prepare for an electrical outage, and ensure that your food supply is sufficient to ‘ride out’ the storm. Check your flashlights for fresh batteries (and that you know where they are). Be safe during any outage (no candles, or indoor BBQ cooking – even in the garage). Be cautious while driving: watch for road debris, and don’t drive through flooding roads.
