HMMM… you may ask, what was about to happen later after the STEP OUTSIDE opening art reception at the Fairweather House and Gallery?
Approaching FOULWEATHER!
Heavy rain arrived as if the skies had a grudge against umbrellas and dry socks! The clouds are challenging us to an epic water fight and winning by a landslide. The puddles are now claiming territory, and the raincoats are getting a workout they never signed up for!
An atmospheric river, a name given to an extended, narrow structure and the substantial quantity of water vapor they carry through the atmosphere, resembling a river in the sky. These phenomena materialize as a result of Pacific winds directing it towards the North Coast of Oregon. Atmospheric rivers serve as the primary mechanisms for transporting freshwater on Earth, and upon reaching land, they often release rainfall within relatively brief timeframes.
Oregon N coast received 1.68” of rain since Sat midnight. (via KOIN)
