A EF 1 tornado touched down this morning at 7:45 in the town of Frederickson, roughly 25 miles (a 37 min drive), 20 miles line of sight from my house. It did $25,000 worth of damage, ruined a few buildings and some resident homes. We've had some pretty weird weather this year so far. It's very unusual.
It's been the wettest September on record in Seattle and Olympia, Wash. with 9 inches as of Sept. 30.
