Impact & Risks

The extended Flood Warning indicates minor flooding is currently affecting Mason County, Washington, particularly near the Skokomish River at Potlatch. At 16.5 feet, the river causes widespread flooding of pasture lands and results in water flowing over West Bourgault Road and Skokomish Valley Road, making them unsafe for travel. The forecasted crest of 17.4 feet on Saturday morning could exacerbate these conditions, posing risks to property and transportation. Residents in the affected areas should remain vigilant and prepare for potential disruptions.
