The Williamette River is very large but not as large as the largest river on the west coast which is the Columbia River which is the border above Portland Oregon to Washington State. So, if the winds get or stay bad you might see people west of the Williamette River evacuating too. If this happens then almost anything could happen including part of Portland, Oregon and surrounding suburbs could burn down. Places like Oregon City to Molalla likely have been evacuated as of yesterday because of two fires. Salem is also in jeapordy of burning down along with Portland if the winds get bad again before the rains come next week.
