The #Skagit River which originates in the BC Cascades has now reached Major Flood Stage at the monitoring station near Concrete #WA… The river still expected to rise another 12-13ft over the next several hours!

If you are in the area, please check with local officials!

Skagit County has ordered Mount Vernon and upriver communities of Hamilton, Rockport, Marblemount and Concrete to evacuate to high ground as soon as possible.

Everyone in Skagit County living in the 100-year floodplain will likely receive an evacuation notice today.

Slow, gentle humming is calming for your nervous system, but it also boosts nitric oxide, a molecule that helps your blood vessels relax and dilate, for heart health.

A few humming breaths can shift you out of “fight or flight” and into a relaxed state in under a minute.

Heads up Japan
Very surreal feeling down here in Tokyo. The most slight feeling of shaking I've maybe yet experienced from an earthquake, yet prolonged enough that it was clear something was going on. Hope things are ok up north.
A large earthquake, currently measured at magnitude 7.2, has just hit off Aomori Prefecture. A tsunami advisory is in effect for southern Hokkaido and northeastern Tohoku. The earthquake was strong enough to be faintly perceived all the way in Tokyo.

Whenever i have impostor syndrome I listen to people like Tom Cotton and realize I am qualified to be whatever i want to be.

Cotton (Arkansas)sounds like a rube. Himes (Connecticut) sound like a serious, intelligent person.
