Drier weather is coming, but flooding effects are likely to continue for days across portions of western Washington state and northwestern Oregon.

A foot and a half of rain pushed the water levels of at least four rivers in Washington, including the Skagit River, to hit record highs, surpassing some of their previous records set over 35 years ago.

While the torrential downpour caused by an atmospheric river has slowed down, rivers and waterways continue to rise and flood in the state.

Record flooding is possible at the Skagit River among others.

Record floodwaters are slowly receding in Washington state after triggering evacuations, inundating communities and prompting dramatic rescues from rooftops and vehicles.
