Anyone in Beaverton take a look outside the last few hours? It's insane

In Jeff's area, he saw a transformer blow out and his way to his house was blocked by a tree - he had to take a different route just to get home. Poor guy.

Most of the schools around here are closed today as well because of tree damage and power outage. O.o

Holy Mackerel!! I didn't know this was happening out where you are!! *tosses you in an indestructible encasement* You stay safe, honey...

You're hearing news of the North West? I didn't think this would really go inland, but we were wrong. I'll be fine. I think the worst is over. We only had power blips which is nothing compared to the people down the street... It's the price you pay for getting to live around so many trees.

Yeeea, I get freaked when huge wind storms come by. We live in a trailer park named "Oaks Mobile Home Park" for a reason. :| The acorns that hit the roof sound like bombs...
Glad to hear you're all right... but I hope everyone around you can recover okay. I hadn't heard about this at all, actually.

I hope you were ok with the storm by your house.

I'm fine this morning, ut the street is a wreck. All the kids are happy because school has been canceled in our area. :)

I lost power until 9:00 this morning, it was really bad. However, it was very cool to watch the transformer for the neighborhood blow up.

[thegrapeofdeath]

That would have been really cool to watch.

Wow! Stay safe!

Storms are sooo interesting - the power, the drama - but I've sure learned to respect them from here in Tornado Alley.

It was very interesting to go look at all the damage afterwords. I never thought we'd get a big storm here.
