shit.

very close to #portalberni

must have only started in the past hour or two.

Looks like it is south of the city, near China Creek.

the wind is thankfully and rarely blowing NNE. So might be moving away from town. No info yet.

The south facing Alberniweather WebCam has the best view. 😢
Apparently, it is very near China Creek. Please do not approach that area.
Or anywhere on the southside of town to ensure emergency vehicles can get down there

4/n Not going to sugar coat this.

Tonight, Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday could be very scary.

If the rain comes on Friday that will help immensely.

I believe every person in the City of Port Alberni should Get a grab and go bag ready right now.

Make arrangements with friends and family out of town if you can just in case.

This is serious. It could go bad very quickly. The best we can do is be over prepared.

@alberniweather
Thanks, Chris
We are in South Port and gathering go bags and prepping yard and water tanks... Communicating with neighbours. This will NOT be a restful night.
Take care everyone
@ErinMC2 take care! I'm sure I won't be the only one up most the night.
