112 mph winds hit upon us in the Seattle area 9 days ago. Still 96,000 w/o power in King County. 12 dead, many injured or hospitalized from carbon monoxide poisonings. Many live wires down yet. One man and his dog went for a walk to check on his neighbors. Thought the wire on street was dead after power repair crews had been through his neighborhood a few days earlier. He and his dog both stepped on wire and died instantly. I live in a rural urban area and all of our wires are underground as are most newer developments, but our grids are still linked to older power stations and above ground wirings. We are surrounded by beautiful 150 to 200 ft tall fir trees most of which were rooted into soggy ground from last months heavy rain falls.read more

What I didn’t realize was that this fellow, who was 15 years old at the time, and out hunting with his brother and a friend may have been the first eyewitness to actually see the crashed object.
