Washington state residents are bracing for possible mudslides and levee failures from floodwaters that are expected to be slow to recede.

Portions of western Washington state have experienced a month’s worth of rain within the past few days, causing historic flooding, damaging mudslides and more than 100,00 people facing potential evacuations.

Washington is prone to intense spells of fall rainfall, but these storms have been exceptional, and more rain is on the way this weekend.

With Christmastown and holiday lights events canceled for the weekend, Leavenworth residents focus on flood recovery.

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

More than 100,000 residents were told to leave their homes across Washington State this week as rivers overflowed.

Days of flooding in Western Washington this week have led to swamped roads and highways, with authorities announcing the closure of Stevens Pass through the weekend.

Record flooding in Washington state has forced tens of thousands of people to evacuate after torrential rains this week.

At least 100,000 people have been ordered to evacuate as historic flooding hit Washington. Areas across the state saw between 13 and 16 inches of rain, causing four major rivers to break their record flood levels between Thursday and Friday.
