* WHAT...Southwest winds 25 to 35 mph with gusts up to 50 to 55 mph
expected.

* WHERE...Portions of northwest and west central Washington.

* WHEN...Until 6 AM PST Wednesday.

* IMPACTS...Damaging winds will blow down trees and power lines.
Widespread power outages are expected. Travel will be difficult,
especially for high profile vehicles.

* ADDITIONAL DETAILS...Saturated soils will make it easier for trees
to come down in these winds. Winds will be coming from an atypical
direction, which may exacerbate impacts.

People should avoid being outside in forested areas and around trees
and branches. If possible, remain in the lower levels of your home
during the windstorm, and avoid windows. Use caution if you must
drive.

Significant rainfall over the past week has increased soil moisture
to high levels across western Washington. Additional rainfall of 1
to 2 inches is expected through the rest of today. This amount of
rain will continue to put extra pressure on soil instability,
leading to an increased threat of landslides and debris flows,
especially from recent burned areas, with this new ranfall acting as
a trigger.

Numerous landslides have already occurred in Whatcom, Skagit, King
Counties and others. More landslides are possible.

Areas most susceptible to landslides debris flows under these
conditions are steep coastal bluffs, other steep hillsides or
road cuts, and recent burned areas. A diminishing threat of
landslides and debris flows will continue for several days after
the rain ends.
