The "bomb cyclone" wasn't as severe as predicted for us on the central Oregon Coast. It was very windy with heavy rain and hail, thunder and lightning, but we didn't lose power, and no trees fell in our forest. The sun is out and no more rain is predicted until later this afternoon. Phew!

This photo is of Depoe Bay, Oregon! Fingers crossed none of the huge trees in our neighbor topple over tonight.
An unusually powerful force is fueling weather hazards in the northwestern United States and Canada, including an intense atmospheric river headed to California. The record-strong low-pressure system is forecast to develop offshore of Oregon and Washington on Tuesday.
Record-setting bomb cyclone, intense as a hurricane, to lash Northwest
A record-strong low-pressure system will steer an atmospheric river into California, create blizzard conditions in Washington and bring strong, damaging winds.
