Mark,

Per the locals, we had 129 mph winds at Rockaway Beach.   One of my hemlock 
trees now resides in my dad's house.   Just got the electricity back in 
total yesterday (12/11).  Our street was blocked by a downed hemlock, so I 
had to take my fence down and drive out through a neighbor's yard.   I have 
never seen a storm of this intensity in Oregon, with the winds lasting as 
long as they did.   My guess is that it was close to 36 hours of sustained 
high winds.

I just got back to the Willamette Valley today....   too old for this stuff.

Steve

Hey, since we're comparing weather notes, it is currently blowing 45 kts
with gusts over 50 with wave heights of 32' at 9 second intervals 16 miles
off the Oregon coast. It's raining too. Coastal headlands are seeing
sustained winds of 80+ mph with gusts up to 109!! The Oregon coast can be
somewhat inhospitable to small boat sailors this time of year! These
conditions have been consistent all day and will continue until tomorrow
evening. It's warm, though, 50°. I'm glad my little boat is snugly under
cover in my driveway awaiting spring.
