I got a lot of rain, but no flooding and no wind damage that I can see. The chickens are in 7th heaven, bustling around the run and pecking at all the debris - I killed two birds with one stone (SORRY CHOOKIES) and dumped all the leaf litter and PINE NEEBLES I'd been raking up to create a wildfire defensible space into their coop to raise the floor level in case of flooding.

Forest Falls and Seven Oaks, small communities northeast of me, got slammed with flooding and mud slides. Some people had to get rescued from trees!

I'm having an annoyingly hard time keeping up with natural disaster news, including in my own backyard. Twitter used to be the absolute best source for breaking news, but not anymore THANKS ELXN. Does anyone have any recommendations for 1) breaking news of disasters in general with up-to-the-minute updates, 2) any sources with good followup? Particularly looking for either good updates or in-depth coverage on the Maui and Northwest Territories fires.
