(read additional articles in Seattle PI link. [link to seattlepi.nwsource.com] Tuesday, January 10, 2006 · Last updated 5:53 a.m. PT Heavy rain causes mudslides in Seattle, Western Washington THE ASSOCIATED PRESS SEATTLE -- Continued heavy rain caused more mudslides overnight in Seattle and elsewhere in Western Washington. One mudslide has blocked railroad tracks north of Seattle, and as a result Sound Transit spokesman Lee Somerstein says there will be no Sounder commuter train running today between Seattle and Everett. Service will be out for at least 48 hours. A similar slide hit the same area on Friday. Somerstein says Sounder trains are still running between Seattle and Tacoma. State Transportation Department crews are at the scene of a mudslide that has blocked a northbound lane of I-Five in the Nisqually area near the Pierce-Thurston county line. A clogged drain resulted in a mudslide that caused a retaining wall to bulge and forced the evacuation of a fraternity annex near the University of Washington. The Seattle Fire Department evacuated five residents and shut off power to the building (at 47th Street and 22nd Avenue Northeast).

Many more road closures as we speak.

If everyone would start posting the happenings in their areas we would have a true sense of what is REALLY happening around us, besides the fluff and distractions the MSM dotes on.

I would imagine even a 3.5 could set things in motion. I hope they have stocked up on emergency supplies, like WATER and FOOD. No doubt we're in for quite a ride!

But I have kept piped-in (via satellite and shortwave radio) to the daily events in Seattle. It is my hometown and birthplace, my loved ones are still there, but I do think most of them now carry food, water and supplies in their cars. I too have the feeling that "things" are coming down quickly there and soon they won't have a choice to leave. Blizzard in all mtn passes east, too.

Last time they came through here doin 90 mph. Coming this way over the ocean, it does look ominous. Rain is OK, but high winds suck.
