no serious damage to my place, blew the tarp shed 100 ft , tipped the outhouse over and blew it 20 ft , destroyed a small shed and dropped 3 trees on the roof of a small cabin -no damage to roof I'm off grid so the power loss dosn't effect me but the majority of the county will be without power for 2 or more weeks flattened acres of trees, spent most of fri night cutting out the roads and a couple of neighbors just got internet and phone back today apparently a cyclonic system with lots of micro-bursts- this is the town of Republic, WA.  , Ferry County  :o :o

Glad to hear your okay my friend.  Have there been twisters in that area previously?

Wow that is rare to get a twister in that area. Glad your OK. We have been having some heavy thunderstorms and lightning on the west side last couple of weeks been a odd summer so far.

I'm glad you didn't have major damage, James, and glad to hear something from you.  I've been wondering how you are doing.
