  • 8 years ago

The game went on for two opposing high school football teams in Oregon on October 14, despite harsh winds and rainy conditions brought on by super storms hitting the Pacific Northwest.
This footage shows the game, between the Crescent Valley Raiders and the Forest Grove Vikings. Despite torrential rain and heavy winds, which lashed across Forest Grove’s Dick Hendricks Memorial Stadium, the Raiders came out on top, with a score of 27 to 8.Elsewhere in Oregon, a tornado whipped up by the foul weather struck the beach area of Manzanita, felling trees and sending debris scattering across the community’s roads.
