There is a foot of snow on the ground and the birds are having a hard time finding seed. I put a piece of carpet out and covered it with seed, but by the time I got back inside, the snow had already covered the seed back up! (I'll try to keep the cam running, but the snow is affecting my internet as well...)

At the height of this event...sustained winds could reach 50 to 70 mph with peak gusts of 70 to 90 mph. The strongest winds are expected to impact communities in eastern King County such as North Bend...Maple Valley and Enumclaw.

During that event...numerous trees were blown over...blocking residential streets and major highways alike...including Highway 18 near Tiger Mountain. Power was knocked out to many residences and businesses for as much as a week. People need to prepare now for major disruption resulting from this windstorm. Be sure to have enough supplies on hand to last for several days should you be stranded at home. By late Saturday morning...it may be too late to prepare. In addition...wind chill readings during this event may be near zero with air temperatures in the mid to upper 20s. Precautionary/preparedness actions... A High Wind Warning means that a severe high wind event is imminent or occurring. Sustained winds of at least 50 mph...or gusts of 75 mph or higher will occur across The Lowlands. Residents and local officials in the warned area should be prepared for widespread damage and power outages that could last for more than a week. Haner
