    It doesn't seem to attract any attention, but this storm about to hit the NW Coast will have a low pressure eye of about 953 millibars as it hits the coast. That is less than the eye of Mathew at about 970 or so.
    The projection is only for gust of wind up to 85 mph. I don't believe that will turn out to be accurate.

    I think I will go double up the mooring lines on the MarAzul.

    For those of us who are idiots, what does any of that mean?

    Also, wasn't the store back in the mid 90's more powerful than the Columbus day storm, but further off the coast?

    >>> I might try to answer later. When I have a clue.

    It was bad, but not quite as strong as the 62 storm.

    953 millibars scares the shit out of me!

    Grib file. The storm will hit the coast from Vancouver Island to San Francisco.

    I'm not sure if the driver will get charged. Even if he does Nevada has very loose rules for self defense.
