It's wet here my friend and it can only get worse for those who lives in the low land area. Last night & early this morning, a section of I-5 was closed for few hours due to flood near FIFE. The snow collected on the mountain last few weeks, combine with the rain and warm temperature (50+F) can guarantee one thing:
more water=flood.
High and dry here in Sequim. After the snow and ice, we got abut 1 1/2 inches of rain, now a strong westerly is drying things out. The temps are starting to drop, and should help solidify the snow pack tonight. Been warm, and the Dungenes river here is running good, but not flooding. Serious whitecaps out in the Straits. Some roads closed out West of us towards the beaches and Cape Flattery. Bad weather, but not as much destruction as down South.
We are above water here in Redmond, but the little Sammamish River behind work is getting pretty high. I know one of the guys from work lives in Duvall, and it's basically an island out there. The roads are closed going in and out.
