Grays Harbor County got hammered this morning, sounds like the winds are picking up now in Oly-town. Good way to stay on top of weather and road conditions (when you have power) is to keep us updated here and keep an eye on the WSDOT site and the National Weather Service.

Cooper Point Rd./Cedrona/Madera/TESC Area
Submitted by JstPlnOnry on Mon, 12/03/2007 - 11:44am.There is a lake, literally, at the entrance to Cedrona/Madera. The only way to get in or out is go through Madera out past the TESC college housing and loop back to Kaiser. There were 3 tractor trailer tow trucks pulling out cars and one car is nose down in the water & water is running over the hood & windshield of it!
20th St. off Cooper Point going towards Division is now closed off right before the turn to LP Brown elementary.
Cooper Point is flooded over at the Goldcrest entrance and the road to Hansen Elem. & Marshall Middle schools.
My kiddo at Capital said there were only about 10 people in her classes of 30+ because most of the kids were out on Steamboat and couldn't get in.
She also said her best friend out on Delphi Rd. is being evacuated by the fire department due to flooding and she couldn't get to school either.
It's a zoo out there! I only ventured out because Mr. Onry bought me a 50 inch HD Plasma to hang over my fireplace in the family room yesterday for Christmas and I needed to trade in my old cable box for a HD/DVR box! I must be a slave to TV!
Hubby went into Dupont for work today and said if you can swim through Olympia going North, the highways are fine but not to leave town and try & get back in because I-5 on to 101 is a total parking lot, probably due to the mudslide down towards Steamboat.
Coming home from Comcast, I was thinking today might be a great day to get out & do some Christmas shopping because nobody else will be out! LOL!
I'm pimping the Moxlie thread
