Hello!
Well, thankfully we survived the night!  Extreme wind & rain hit our area about 10:30 last night. Most of us were tired enough to see it & fall right asleep without hesitation. We are expecting to assist areas within the Northwest Chapter who are under flash flood warnings.
One general population shelter has been consolidated with another shelter & closed down, but we are gaining two.
Things are coming together at the chapter & staffing needs are being met. We are currently obtaining the total number of spontaneous volunteers who have signed up to assist. People have been generous with time & coming forward to help.
Just moments ago we were told that President Bush might be visiting this chapter & going on a tour of one of the shelters tomorrow.  Will let you know if that happens.
I know things are going well at GCC! I have been following your updates too.
