Im staying home where it is nice and safe and dry today...next time I am getting out is Wednesday...hopefully, depends on work schedule...
Dave and Rob and the guys are hitting up the sky, they said it is good up to 60,000cfs! Makes JP's run a few years ago look like the powerhouse on the Snoqualmi...

Well, looks like we dodged a bullet this time. River came into the yard and made a mess but mostly stayed out of the garage. If it had peaked 1" lower, it wouldn't have made it in the garage at all.

Dave, did you get the furniture and wood working gear out of the garage in time? I hope so, and I am glad it was only a bit... I am sure you don't want to test those flood vents out!

Well, the quality of this video is not as good as the last post, I'm no budding Scorsese...
The Otterboy and I walked in to see Twin Falls on the SF Snoqualmie this afternoon when the river was at 2600 cfs (just a couple of hours before it peaked at 3300). The section of river above the II+ run (that you can carry up to the peculation pool) looked like Pilchuck Creek (at a normal flow). The Peculation Pool entry looked like class V as did much of the river between Twin Falls and the pool. Don't have any footage of this.
The falls were impressive though as we watched logs get trapped in an undercut of doom below the bridge and above the 2nd falls.
Here is some video of the falls...

Damn, that's huge. That has to be at least 6k on the gauge.

The gauge for the SF Snoqualmie is quite a ways upstream...so the actual flow would be way higher than 2600.
