We are still not through this yet!
New video from the King County Sheriff's Office shows their Marine Rescue Dive Unit and the National Guard rescue a driver who went past a road closed sign last night. (On 277th, west of West Valley Highway). Thankfully, everyone is ok.

(79,123 posts)Western Washington braces for another storm as heavy rain threatens more flooding havoc
Dec 16, 2025 #komo #komonews #komo4
Dire situations continue to unfold in western Washington as another round of heavy rain is set to sweep across the region following historic flooding last week.
Aggravated flooding concerns will be the worst through Thursday, then are forecast to decrease heading into the weekend.
There will be one more push of heavy rain and wind before colder air moves in to bring snow back to the mountains for the second half of the week, replacing the upper-elevation rain that has aggravated river flooding.
Many rivers rose after Monday's rain and will again rise through Wednesday with the next wave of heavy showers.
