The Pineapple Express paid a visit and brought us a lot of rain from Hawaii. Impressive video of the Stillaguamish River near Granite Falls.. |

Huh. Amazing to think of the power that river must have... This is the type of precipitation we've had recently. |

Where's my kayak? It's amazing to me how much faith people have in hydraulic engineers. That platform is on the outer bend of a abrupt alignment adjustment in that river, and it's obvious there have been past stability issues (see the floodwall outside the fence that's periodically splashed over - that wouldn't be there if the river wasn't being forced away from where it wants to go). It's probably ok, but I've see catastrophic slope failures numerous times. As a hydraulic engineer, I understand what it means to "tame" a river. I wouldn't be standing where those people are. |
