Storm Damage
We had our own damage here. Lots of wind (50mph)
but no snow or hail. It blew the water out of the river. Water level today was still about 5' low. http://www.bcsailing.org/images/junk/PICT0058.jpg http://www.bcsailing.org/images/junk/PICT0059.jpg I did find something neat. Remains of an old pier out in the middle of the river. This is at the end of the sandbar. http://www.bcsailing.org/images/junk/PICT0061.jpg S.

Storm Damage
We didn't have any real damage, some limbs blown down and
piles of leaves re-distributed. About 2' ~ 3' of water ran out of the river but that's well within normal range. It would have to blow more from the WSW to SW before the water would *really* drop, like 5' to 6'. NotPony wrote: We had our own damage here. Lots of wind (50mph) but no snow or hail.
