Pacific Northwest Got Hammered

If you guys could be praying for my area that would be awesome. NW Oregon/SW Washington were hit hard with wind and rain at the beginning of the week, and are still being hit (Thankfully not as hard). On Tuesday night me and fellow SAR (Search and Rescue) members were activated to assist with the rescue and evacuation of a neighboring town. During the evacuation, a river about 100 feet from one of our teams crested. The water went from a few inches to 3 feet within 15 minutes. During the chaos we ended up losing one of our new SAR rigs. Thankfully everyone made it out unscathed.

Everyone here has been affected in some way, so please keep our region in your prayers.

Hey, I live in Portland and experienced this rain! It was pretty crazy.

If you don't mind me asking, what part of Washington do you live in? I understand Vancouver got hit pretty hard too.
