Planned on heading out after work. Wanted to combine w/ a saturday hump float. Doesn't look like the float will happen. Clams might be questionable too.

I don't think it's an exaggeration to say we won't be fishing the Hump (or anything else) for about 2 weeks once this gets going, if the forecast is even close to right.

Think I'll wait for the next opener to dig clams. Thanks for the heads up, thaxor.

We're going to get hit with the remnants of a Pacific typhoon. Lots of rain and high winds. Hunker down and batten the hatches. Make sure you have extra water, flashlights/batteries, and propane.

The last time this happened was September 2013. The high water destroyed the Kalama River weir. So they built another for $2 million. Unless they pull it out in the next couple days, it will happen again.....

I can only hope!

Projected swells for friday @ 5pm.
https://www.windytv.com/?swell,2016-10-15-00,47.099,-124.337,11

Work buddy linked me this site, pretty powerful options. You can change metric on the right side, and period/time in lower left.

That one was nasty! And with the absence of modern technology warning was non-existent. Was sitting in the football stands watching Edmonds play Roosevelt when the winds started to pick up causing the new stadium cover to flex and the field lighting to sway. Etched in mind mind is Roosevelt's punter having to run backward to catch his own punt! Pretty wild!! Anyway, the game was suspended at halftime.

Coast report... LIVE.

NO substantial wind felt in Aberdonia to date. Calm before the storm?

I'm having my servers powered down after work tomorrow because Saturday is supposed to be the heart of the maelstrom.

Looks like the coastal Oyrgoogans south of the CR mouth are taking a beating now, and wind's picking up along the LB Peninsula to the north

http://digital.weather.gov/?zoom=7&l...&mxmz=false

Click the second drop down menu and select "wind speed"

Get ready... cuz here it comes.

Wind starting to blow pretty good now in Aberdonia

And suspended ceiling panels are rattling with each BIG gust.

I'm sure you'd be on here offering your opinion if they would have under-forecast and folks were killed on the beach too!

Typical

There's still time for you to head out there and test the rest of the forecast....please.
