🌧️😅 WAHKIAKUM COUNTY WEATHER REPORT: aka Mother Nature’s Comedy Special 😅🌧️

Today:

Rain… like, a lot of it, mainly before 2pm because apparently the sky has an appointment later. High near 58° which is great, except the west-southwest wind is rolling in like it pays rent 💨💨
We’re talking 8–16 mph with gusts up to 31 mph, so hold onto your hats, your wigs, your emotional stability it’s all gone with the wind today 🤣🎩💨 Chance of rain is 90% which is basically the weather saying “Bet.” Expect a quarter to half an inch of sky juice falling directly on your soul ☔😤

Tonight:
Showers continue because Washington refuses to dry itself off like a normal state.
Low near 48°, breezy again, and the west wind will be blowing 14–18 mph with gusts up to 34 mph — so yes, your trash cans will be visiting the neighbors tonight 🗑️💨➡️🏠😂
Chance of rain: 80%, meaning this storm is clocking in for a double shift.
Expect another tenth to quarter inch of liquid disappointment 😭🌧️

Stay safe, stay dry, and remember… if you see someone flying down the road, it’s probably just the wind assisting them with their cardio 🤣🌬️💪

🌧️😂🌪️💙

⚠️ WEATHER ALERT – WAHKIAKUM COUNTY ⚠️
🌧️💨 Storm System & Breezy Conditions Ahead

A storm system is moving into western Washington overnight, bringing steady rain to Wahkiakum County and the lower Columbia River area, along with breezy conditions heading into Friday.

✅ What to Expect:
• Periods of moderate to heavy rain
• Slick roads and reduced visibility
• Gusty winds at times
• Mountain snow and freezing rain east of the Cascades will NOT impact us directly, but could affect regional travel

💨 Wind Update:
Breezy times ahead for western Washington. As many of you may say, it’s just another typical fall in the Pacific Northwest.
• A light breeze is expected tomorrow, with some passing rain.
• Friday brings the main event with heavier rain combined with wind gusts of 30–40 MPH at times.
• Keep in mind, models sometimes overestimate, so most areas may only top out in the 25–35 MPH range.
No biggie… but still worth securing loose items.

🚗 Travel Advisory:
Roads may become slick, especially overnight and during the early morning commute. Slow down, use headlights, and give yourself extra time.

🌊 Water & Drainage:
Creeks and low-lying areas may see quick rises. Clear storm drains if safe to do so.

We’ll continue to monitor and share updates as conditions change.
Stay safe, Wahkiakum County! 💙🌧️💨

This page has always been about serving our community with accuracy, care, and commitment, and it truly means the world to us that so many of you trust and follow our updates. We are incredibly grateful for your patience, support, and understanding during this transition.

We will be back as soon as possible, stronger, settled, and ready to continue serving Wahkiakum County.
