High winds whirl up damage

The North Coast was picking up the pieces Tuesday after Monday night's big storm walloped the coast with high winds and almost constant rain.The National Weather Service warns that more bad weather is on the way.
Sustained winds of 55 mph were reported at Clatsop Spit near Astoria and there was one report of a gust of 62 mph in Seaside. Farther south, wind gusts at or exceeding 89 mph were reported at Waldport and Garibaldi.
A 95 mph gust was reported about 5:15 p.m. Monday at Cape Foulweather between Newport and Lincoln City.The U.S. Coast Guard closed the bars at the Columbia River and Tillamook Bay Monday and they remained closed overnight.
National Weather Service meteorologist Jonathan Wolfe in Portland said one to two inches of rain fell in about 12 hours on the Coast. The weather service has issued a flood watch for nearly all of northwest Oregon.
The biggest casualty was the roof of the old City Hall building at Broadway and Roosevelt Drive in Seaside that blew off. The road was blocked off by city of Seaside public works crews and was to be inspected at first light to determine how quickly it could be moved. The building was being renovated for local business use.
Flooding south of Seaside caused U.S. Highway 101 to be closed overnight to all but trucks and large high-profile vehicles, with a reported one foot of water on the roadway.
Adam Torgerson, the public information officer for Oregon Department of Transportation Region 2, said staff measured 16 inches of standing water on U.S. Highway 101 at Beerman Creek at 9 a.m. this morning. Although the rains from overnight had subsided, he said the tide was coming in, so crews did not expect the water on the road to recede.
Traffic through the area is limited to high-clearance vehicles, such as basic four-wheel drive vehicles. Torgerson said no passenger cars or minivans are allowed to pass through the high water."Over the course of the storm there were remarkably few trees down," Torgerson said. "There is brush and debris in various sections of the roads."He said crews are working to remove the brush and debris from Highway 101 and U.S. Highway 26.
He said hazardous tree removal done this summer might have had an impact on the storm's damage. There were only a few trees in the area that fell across roads."Typically, with that much wind, there is more," Torgerson said.Flood warnings were issued Monday for the Nehalem River. Between 2 and 2 1⁄2 inches of rain fell overnight and two rivers in Washington - the Willapa and the Grays - exceeded flood stage.Cannon Beach Elementary School was closed today because of a power outage that began at about 4 p.m. Monday. All other schools in the Seaside School District were open.Sheila Holden, regional community manager Pacific Power, said the wind damaged three transmission towers.
A mobile generator was to be moved to Cannon Beach to power core businesses, from Cannon Beach Elementary School south to the Pig 'N Pancake. She was unsure when power would be restored to the rest of the city.One of the transmission towers is in the middle of water, Holden said, and an assessment would have to be made about how to get equipment to it and what damage needed to be repaired.
Other sporadic outages occurred from Warrenton to Seaside, but those were repaired, Holden said.The transmission line serving Cannon Beach is in dense forest, which in places is not easy to reach."Cannon Beach is a beautiful place, but the terrain and mother nature seem to hit it the most," Holden said.
City Manager Rich Mays said the city staff planned to meet this morning to discuss damage that may have occurred and what to do if an extended power outage continued. Although there were no plans yet to open a shelter, Mays said that would be discussed. Coincidentally, the city's shelter committee had scheduled a meeting at 1 p.m. Tuesday.Two trees came down in town, including one that landed on an SUV on Hemlock Street between Jackson and Monroe streets and one that fell over Hills Lane. Another major branch fell at Dawes and Spruce streets.
In addition to power outages, telephone service went out in some places, including Arch Cape.Clatsop County Emergency Management coordinator Gene Strong said this morning that staff held a weather briefing Monday afternoon to prepare for the coming storm. He said staff agreed to monitor the weather and remain prepared to react if needed, but emergency management plans were not implemented overnight."The bad news is we have another (storm) coming," he said.Clatsop County Sheriff Tom Bergin said there was little serious damage from the overnight storm. He said there were few trees across roads this year. "The first storm usually just loosens 'em," Bergin said. "We'll be watching closely Thursday."The storm hit KMUN's transmission tower on Megler Mountain Monday morning.
The damage to the antenna meant that station managers had to shift programming to its sister station KCPB at 90.9 FM. The regular programming on KCPB was being pre-empted.
The storm damage happened between 8 and 10 a.m. Monday at the transmission tower, which is on a ridge above the Washington side of the Astoria-Megler Bridge. The strong winds battering the North Coast blew the antenna off the tower. A station spokesman said staff were working hard to restore normal broadcasting as soon as possible. A new antenna was being fabricated and shipped to the station.The interim general manager, Doug Sweet, was working with former general manager Dave Hammock and engineer Terry Wilson to correct the issue, but feared it could take three to five days. KTCB Tillamook and the three translators (South Astoria 91.1, Cannon Beach 89.5, and Wheeler/Manzanita 88.9) will be silent during this period. The receivers for KTCB and the translators listen to 91.9 for KMUN, and the engineering department cannot re-tune them to hear KCPB at 90.9. KMUN continued to broadcast on the internet at coastradio.org KAST Radio also had trouble. The Tuesday morning news crew reported the station's satellite dish was hit by the storm, meaning they had to offer local broadcasting instead of regular national offerings in the early morning slot.
The National Weather Service said a series of storm systems will continue to roll through the region through the weekend, beginning Wednesday night.In Washington, flood waters are receding in many areas. However, the flood warning remains in effect until Wednesday afternoon for the Skokomish River near Potlatch.
A five-mile section of Highway 101 was closed by flooding and mudslides Monday night near Hoodsport. Transportation Department spokeswoman Emily Pace says it remains officially closed until experts assess the situation, but some traffic Tuesday morning drove around the "road closed" signs.
Some high winds reported around Washington: Hoquiam 70 mph, Bellingham 58 mph, Everett 46 mph, Bremerton 39 mph, Sea-Tac Airport 35, Olympia 36.

High surf warning issued for North Coast
The Daily Astorian http://www.dailyastorian.com/main.asp?SectionID=2&SubSectionID=398&ArticleID=65437
A high surf warning has been issued by the National Weather Service. Heavy surf will impact the Oregon Coast this weekend when a strong Pacific storm that will generate a very large west to northwest swell will reach the Oregon Coast today.
The warning will be in effect until 4 p.m. Sunday. Breaker heights will initially be around 20 feet this morning, but will build rapidly to around 30 to 35 feet this afternoon and evening. Breakers will subside to around 25 feet on Sunday. The heaviest surf will be on west to northwest facing coastlines.
A high surf warning indicates that battering waves will pound the shoreline. This will result in very dangerous swimming conditions and deadly rip currents. Avoid jetties and other exposed structures as these will likely be regularly inundated by the heavy surf.
The Coast Guard Captain of the Port has closed the Columbia River and Tillamook Bay bars Thursday because of hazardous conditions.
The bar closure is for all vessels and any request to transit the bars prior to reopening must be approved by the Captain of the Port, Portland.
Vessels are advised to divert to Yaquina Bay, or be prepared to remain at sea until the weather clears. Mariners may contact the Coast Guard on Channel 16 for further information or to request crossing.
It is expected the Captain of the Port will re-open the Columbia River and Tillamook Bay bars on or before 5 p.m. Sunday.
Coast Guard renews warning to mariners to prepare properly, stay safe
Mariners need to take the necessary steps to ensure their boats are properly secured.
The Coast Guard has received many reports of vessels adrift in the Northwest.
"With the high winds it is common for vessels to break free from their moorings. The Coast Guard responds to all of these cases, many times putting responders at risk in rough waters" said Petty Officer Daniel Sansom, a Search and Rescue Specialist at Coast Guard Sector Seattle.
Boaters, beach-goers and those living in areas with a potential for flooding should follow these guidelines to ensure their safety:
• Ensure you have a storm anchor. The anchor that comes with a boat is often inadequate for the storms in the Pacific Northwest. An improper or inadequate anchor can cause your boat to drift and may lead to unnecessary search and rescue calls.
• Check all of your anchor and mooring lines. Double the lines up for added strength. Ensure all lines and tackle are in good condition.
• Small boats should be removed from the water and moved to a secure location well above tidal and flood areas to ensure they are not washed out to sea.
• Cover your boat: Heavy rains can flood boats and even cause sinking in extreme cases. Protect your boat and be sure your vessel is adequately covered when it is moored up to prevent flooding. If you can't bring your boat onto shore, make sure it is securely fastened to its dock. Vessels that break free from their moorings can become a hazard to navigation and endanger the lives of those who must retrieve them.
• Ensure boat registration numbers are updated with correct owner information. Consider keeping owner contact information on vessel itself. With this information, agencies responding to adrift vessels can promptly return the vessel to its owner.
• Wear Personal Floatation Devices: Life jackets - bring one for each person. History has shown that the chance of survival greatly increaes if an individual is wearing a personal floatation device. For more information on life jacket requirements visit: http://www.uscgboating.org/command/initiative/jacket.htm
• Check river bar conditions before departing. Boaters should check closure information and current bar restrictions by contacting your local Coast Guard unit. http://www.uscg.mil/d13/bar/default.asp
• Exercise extreme caution on beaches and jetties: Sudden, powerful waves can engulf the entire beach, knocking people down or throwing them violently against nearby rocks. Once in the water, strong currents can pull people out to sea. Beachgoers should also stay away from driftwood floating in the water or resting on shore. Logs can weigh several tons and can quickly be picked up by an unexpected wave and tossed onto people. Jetties are also dangerous due to unstable surfaces and slippery conditions. Large gaps in jetty structures can also trap people who slip and fall while walking on the rocks. Be aware of rising tides - high tides can trap people on rock formations and in coves. Always let someone know where you are going, walk with a buddy and be weather and surf aware.
• Have a Marine Radio: Investing in a good VHF radio is a smart purchase. Cell phones should not be used as a primary means of emergency communication on the water where reception may be poor or unavailable. A VHF radio has a strong signal and distress calls are received by everyone monitoring a VHF radio in range, whereas cell phone communications are point-to-point. Use VHF Channel 16 for emergencies.
• For more in-depth information about radios and terminology visit the link below. http://www.uscgboating.org/safety/metlife/radio.htm
• Float Plan: A float plan is a written statement of the details of an intended voyage usually filed with a friend, neighbor and/or marina operator or; a document that specifically describes the vessel, equipment, crew, and itinerary of a planned voyage. Leave a copy with a friend, relative or local marina before heading out on the water. If a vessel has an emergency or is overdue, pertinent information will be available to provide local marine police or the Coast Guard. If delayed, boaters should inform those with the float plan, and be sure to notify them upon returning so the float plan can be "closed out" and an unnecessary and costly search avoided. An example of a float plan can be found at http://www.uscgboating.org/safety/fedreqs/floatplan.pdf.
• Minimize contact with flood water - Standing water from flooding can carry diseases and hazardous chemicals. If you get your water from a well and water floods into your pump house - check to see if water from the ground went down your well. If so, or if you're not sure, boil your water before using it for drinking or cooking for yourself or your pets. If water floods your septic system, minimize your use of water for washing and wait for the water level to drop. If you come in contact with standing water, wash carefully before you eat or drink.
• Assemble a disaster preparedness kit - a good disaster kit should include: a first aid kit and essential medications, canned food and a can opener, at least three gallons of water per person, protective clothing, rain gear, and bedding or sleeping bags, battery-powered radio, flashlight, and extra batteries, special items for infants, elderly, or disabled family members, written instructions for how to turn off electricity, gas and water if authorities advise you to do so (remember, you'll need a professional to turn them back on.)
• Stay high and dry - move to higher ground away from rivers, streams, creeks, and storm drains. Do not drive around barricades, they are there for your safety. If your car stalls in rapidly rising wters, abandon it immediately and climb to higher ground.
• If it has been raining hard for several hours, or steadily raining for several days, be alert to the possibility of a flood.
• Check Local Weather Forecasts: Be aware that storms can come up quickly and several are forecast this week. Always check local weather conditions and forecasts before heading out. If you must go out, monitor current forecasts, warnings and conditions via National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) Weather Radio. There are 14 NOAA Weather Radio stations broadcasting along the Oregon and Washington coasts.
