I hope you all don't mind a party crasher from the United States.  I was cruising through a lot of weather sites as I'm waiting for the "big storm" to hit the Seattle area in the Pacific Northwest, which is where I live.  I'm Susan.

Hi Susan,

I was pleased to read things were not as bad as first thought but appears pretty violent to me.

SEATTLE -- The track of Saturday’s storm moved west off the coast of Washington, bringing a weaker system over the Puget Sound area than expected.
More than 20,000 customers in the Seattle area were left without power and down trees were reported across the region, but storm damage wasn’t nearly as bad as forecasted.
