Hope everything passes quickly and without much damage....

Alive. House ok. Neighbors destroyed. Power still out, wind snapped the poles like a toothpick. House debris everywhere. Total mess. Meter showed 124 mph sustained before it broke. Cell internet just came back on.
Not aware of injuries since
No comm til few mins ago.

Those are the wind speeds we get up here at the peak.
Last night we were around 70mph and I'm only 130mi north of you.

It was really bad.
Place looks like ww3. I have someone's deck and patio strewn across my lot.

Power is back on, everyone is safe and living somewhere else. Property is a mess, but it's alright, at least it's not hot outside. Bonus is I got a lot of wood that blew in, I will burn that for heat. I have no idea where all this debris came from, but it's here, it's firewood!
Only bummer is my boat that got some air time, but I can probably sell it by the parts and make the same from it. Poor boat, catamaran got air, the bad way. It flew two hulls and a trailer.

Meant NV, not NVM. It was quite hectic during the storm. Hard to type on phone, power was out.
I didn't hide, and it is recorded, but there is nothing to see at 4am out here.
I'd have to find the video, but it's sideways cell phone vid and all you can see is dirt moving in the neighbors (ex-neighbors) truck lights. Nothing much to see there, pitch black.
News stations? Ha ha, there aren't any here. We don't even have a newspaper, just a monthly flyer.

If you look here, at the official station:
3 am 0.2 9.6 191 20.5 61.7 56.1 23 23 44 24.87 0.00
4 am 0.2 14.5 232 40.8 61.8 56.1 21 22 43 24.86 0.00
5 am 0.2 29.4 229 50.0 62.2 56.2 21 21 43 24.83 0.00
6 am 0.2 12.0 145 47.3 61.8 56.2 22 23 44 24.90 0.00
7 am 6.5 7.7 336 18.5 60.2 56.1 26 25 43 24.92 0.00
8 am 14.4 8.8 325 25.0 60.4 56.1 27 26 44 24.94 0.00
9 am 31.4 6.4 4 21.8 61.4 56.1 28 28 45 24.96 0.00
10 am 47.7 12.5 319 31.0 60.8 56.1 28 28 45 24.98 0.00
11 am 60.9 18.8 352 29.7 58.4 56.0 32 29 44 25.01 0.00
3rd number is wind direction, 4th is velocity. You'll see at around 5am it went from 229 to 145, then to 336. The station is in the rotor, it's not in the Froen Wind area, or Kadabatic wind zone. The direction flip shows that, out here local data shows 124 mph sustained, gusts to 140.
Damages match that number. The path of winds was about 3 miles wide, and it lasted about 3-4 hours.
When I call NWS, I am a trained spotter, they ask "do you see any damage?"
Me, "No, it's pitch black outside and probably no vis to dust."
NWS, "Call back when you see damage."
So I call back after the next day when power and such is back on and report damage..
NWS, "Well we already filed the report for 50mph gusts."
So really, I don't care about them, they are kinda blindsided by their job and rules. But it was 124 mph here, the damage here proves it. Even the ground is trashed, everywhere. It's waves of gravel with snow drifts of sand. Total mess.
Neighbors house is total loss, including 2 cars, well house and a trailer. My boat is destroyed, half their stuff went over my fence and is here. I'm calling it free firewood. F' em. Didn't like them anyways.

My insanely tall house survived, basically no damage. So did Mr Evil eyes in the foreground. Doesn't that look like an evil nasty as hell dog? Head low, tail out, ready to attack.

If you zoom in you can see two black and white legs sticking out from under the house.[emoji6]
