Technically it was large enough to be considered off the entire Northwest coast, but the big low was closer to WA and Vancouver Is than anywhere else. But besides pummling the coast with hurricane force winds, the intense low was gonna interact with

Glad you're safe.

I don't know if it's just the trend with the internet, but I do find so many things overhyped these days. Every other weather event is an "event of the century" or "event of a lifetime" or "unsurvivable". I get that climate change is real, but constantly hyping things up like that doesn't really help people take it seriously.

Lol yeah they definitely do way too much hyping, and worse, it's like they assume some of us have horrible memories. I've always been kind of a weather watcher, so I know they're full of crap when they say the latest hurricane is ONE FOR THE AGES i'm like nope, seen it before.

To be fair though, the bomb cyclone did a TON of damage with downslope easterly winds here, so that part wasn't exaggerated. Some ppl just tried to say the winds would be widespread and they weren't.
