Reporting from NE of Redmond
Coating of frozen rain on our south-facing windows
I90 closed from 405 to Hwy 18 due to ice and crashes/spinouts
NOAA says we could get up to 1/2 inch of ice and some wind

Interesting, 30F at Mt. Baker also.

Freezing rain San Juan Islands.
All boats running.
Two roads diverged in a wood, and I,I took the one less traveled by. And that has made all the difference.

Why are the areas with the highest "AR" category not where it rains the most?

I'm a little confused by that map, but I think the dots for atmospheric river and the corresponding colors show the areas that are most likely to be hit by atmospheric rivers. While Crater Lake to Mt. Lassen may get less rain than say, Mt. Olympus, Mt. Baker, and Mt. Rainier, I wouldn't be surprised if that southern Oregon/Northern California area gets hit by more atmospheric rivers.

Glad no one was hurt. Hope you can get a temporary patch of any kind to keep the rain out since there is a lot on the way.

Yikes. I hope you are able to get out. I feel very fortunate to be snug and warm.
I can't remember ever having a storm quite like this, in Seattle at least. My dog splayed out trying to get up and down the few steps to the yard. My husband crawled down and made sure the heated hummingbird feeders weren't clogged with ice.

Well, you need to recognize also that this is a composite forecast over 7 days, so in individual AR events, the flow may be directed to different areas. So this is a sum of the model estimates over that period.
I've just never seen that model before.
To see the current flow pattern and where the air is coming from, view satellite IR animations.
