Noon Flood Report

The water levels in the Skykomish River seem to be remaining steady. Low enough to preclude major damage to homes in my area. The rain continues to fall heavily, now over two and a half inches since midnight.

I’ve just driven our road, and it remains open to the highway. We also still have both electrical and phone service, which makes the watching much more pleasant.

Verizon seems to be going to great measures to keep phone service for us; they have a crew in the neighborhood taking care of any issues that arise.

If we do loose electricity, the blog will go dark as I need the satellite modem to post, and don’t think it would be wise to hook that system up to ‘dirty’ generator power.
