I had to cancel my Yurt camping trip to Cape Lookout State Park, Oregon, scheduled from December 5 to December 8, 2023. A major storm will bring a predicted 6 inches of rain to the coast, extensive flooding, high winds, and increasing high tides. They call it an "atmospheric river."
I've been on the Oregon Coast before in these types of storms and you must stay indoors all the time or you will get soaked. Driving on the few twisting two-lane roads in the hilly terrain of the Oregon Coastal mountains is also quite dangerous in this kind of weather. Also, some roads by bays become closed because of flooding. Time to hunker down at our home in Vancouver during this coming heavy storm.
