NWbyNW Posted November 5, 2022 Report Share Posted November 5, 2022 Winds have suddenly picked up and are extremely powerful. Leaves and branches blowing everywhere! Where's my lantern... and teddy bear... I wish I could share video and pics with you all. The trees are suddenly sideways and blowing nonstop, not just gusts. It's too dark for my camera to pick up. 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NWbyNW Posted November 5, 2022 Report Share Posted November 5, 2022 Everett is currently seeing 60+ mph winds. Coastal locations in Snohomish and Island County are varying around 50-70mph winds that have just come out of nowhere. 6 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NWbyNW Posted November 5, 2022 Report Share Posted November 5, 2022 No one will see anything because it's so dark, but you'll hear the wind! It's insane! Probably the strongest I've seen or heard ever living here! The flag on the flag pole is stretched out like a tablecloth and the trees are completely bent. I've seen gusts here, but never nonstop like this. The power of nature is amazing.

Popular Post CliffMassYelledAtMe Posted November 5, 2022 Popular Post Report Share Posted November 5, 2022 9 minutes ago, NWbyNW said: You're username.... I love it. It must have a story attached! Basically when I was a student at UW, I was part of a group project in a non-atmospheric sciences class. We reached out to atmospheric sciences professors to ask them some questions via email about the convergence zone and pissed them off. Mass was the only one who replied and chewed us out for emailing everyone when he was the expert and all we had to do was consult his book. Fun times. Yeah, it wasn't smart, but we weren't hounding them and they all ignored the email. Except Mass probably didn't like the injury to his ego in that we asked other people too and not his expertise and we didn't get everything we needed to know from his book. Sorry it's not a better story. I can make up another if you would prefer. Many years later it just makes me think about how no matter how smart he is, how arrogant and petty he is too. Like dude, we were stupid college kids. Just hit delete. 10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Meatyorologist Posted November 5, 2022 Report Share Posted November 5, 2022 This is a really south reaching westerly surge. Just got hit with the good stuff, it's really gusty out here.
