  1. Yes it Rains in Pacific NW. sometimes it rains really hard. That’s really not news to those of us who have lived here for any length of time.

  2. I don't know why people CONTINUE to drive into deeply flooded roads. SERIOUSLY. SERIOUSLY 😒😒😒

  3. Been in tacoma all my life. Feels pretty normal to me. Only idiots have a problem with it.

  4. Welp…. we've been crying and moaning for more rain since we apparently didnt get enough last year. we got it now at least XD

  5. "And in the same region there were shepherds out in the field, keeping watch over their flock by night. And an angel of the LORD appeared to them, and the glory of the LORD shone around them, and they were filled with great fear. And the angel said to them, "Fear not, for behold, I bring you good news of great joy that will be for all the people. For unto you is born this day in the city of David a Savior, who is Christ the LORD. And this will be a sign for you: You will find a baby wrapped in swaddling cloths and lying in a manger." ( Luke 2:8-12 E S V Bible )πŸ™πŸ™πŸ™ "For God so loved the world that He gave His One and only Son that whoever believes in him shall not perish, but have eternal life. For God did not send His Son into the world to condemn the world, but to save the world through him." ( John 3:16-17 N I V Bible )πŸ™πŸ™πŸ™

  6. floods at the same place everytime. not news except the jerk holes that move out to the country and then dont know what to expect. Stay in Seattle!!!

  7. Down here in Tillamook, Oregon, we call this "The First Storm of the Season!"

  8. ALL WEATHER ENGINEERING// GEOENGINEERING//

  9. Always expect the Pineapple Express to drop some warm water around this time of year. Quite balmy outside right now.

  10. Im praying for you all. You are my PNW fam and i hope you all make it trough without anyone getting hurt.

  11. I now have the song "It Can't Rain All The Time," from the movie The Crow in my head now!πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚

  12. Homeowner insurance will be going up in Washington next.

  13. I used to live in the PNW, moved away because of the rainy dark days, too many in my opinion. Beautiful place though. I dont miss that weather. Summers are nice or should I say were nice, the annual forest fires kind of ruined that.

  14. Oh nooooo it’s raining in the North West?! Would’ve never known. Take the train if you can and get rain gear. Problem solved πŸ˜‚

  15. I'm surprised they didn't throw in that climate change agenda crap. Rains like this happen pretty much every year there.

  16. The pacific north west is so beautiful.

  17. "A region on the edge of disaster"?

    It's literally normal winter weather.

  18. Ever wonder where all that melted glacier water went to.?

  19. Those melting Icebergs in Antarctica are to blame for this. Get ready Yall with knowledge.

  20. Earth is shifting back to a glaciation period as it has for millions of years. We need to stop the "climate change" insanity and prepare for colder weather. Shorter crop seasons.

  21. Lol, let me guess, global warming, climate change 🀣

  22. Rain? In the Seattle area? Unheard of.

  23. "On the brink of disaster"… Nah. This is nothing. Those being flooded at the moment know they live in a regular flood zone. These flood events happen regularly. The timing of the flooding is causing added inconvenience. That's the price residents pay for their less expensive raised homes.

  24. THIS HOW IT IS WHEN NATIVE PALESTIN MUSLIMS JUSTIFY. BY NATURE & those who voted AGAINST PALESTIN DO DESERVE JUSTICE.
    RAFI MAINE USA-PHD LOVE IT- calling T.
    RAFI Maine USA

  25. Any particular reason you didn't tell us which communities and which rivers?
