Yay.

The biggest storm in 13 years is hitting Seattle and winds on the island are projected to be 40-60 mph with gusts to 80. I’m guessing that the estimates are for the Coupeville/Ebey’s landing area, which has a straight shot through the Strait of Juan De Fuca to the Pacific.

But power for the south end of the island goes by there.

So… not really expecting power to last all night.

And poof, there it went at 9:10. It gave a valiant fight, flickering on and off several times just after 9. But we’re probably down for the duration now.

Update – 4:00 pm: Still down. Not really expecting it to come back on for a while.
