I am not familiar with the area, just looking at it on Google Maps. Good question. Johnson Creek is what floods in Sumas. But it's actually flooding on the Nooksack River that pushes it over it's banks. Sumas sits at about 35 feet lower elevation than Everson, so when the Nooksack overtops near there, it flows downhill and north in a broad, slow-moving wave, eventually funnelling into the Johnson Creek headwaters SW of Sumas. Takes about 16 hours to make the journey from Everson to Sumas, crossing highway 546. As is usually the case when the Nooksack overtops, Johnson Creek is already at bankful due to heavy rains, and the surge of river water is simply too much. Johnson Creek snakes east through town into Sumas River which crosses the border and flows into the Fraser. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had just unwrapped a 4wd remote controlled truck. I had so much fun with that thing out in the snow! Had knobby tires and everything! Lasted about 6 months until I accidentally drove it off the dock at the family lake house! Oh and I found a pic of our horse playing with our neighbors horses in the snow, the back had a date stamp of January 1982.

But I thought this was interesting because someone earlier back (Chewbaca or Rubus maybe?) mentioned a possible rail derailment near the border due to an eroded embankment. Turns out, it was literally right behind our business, which probably explains why the flow pattern was so different than past floods. Our shop isn't visible but sits in the circled area. Yeah that was me. Please keep us updated as you are able. I checked in with my co-worker who's husband is a BNSF worker and she hasn't heard anything from him. I sent her this picture and I think she sent it to him. I'll let you know if I hear anything of interest. Stay safe and keep us posted.

Skagit Weather Posted November 16, 2021 Report Share Posted November 16, 2021 Looks like the levees will hold in Mount Vernon. River crested just below 37 ft a couple hours ago and is slowly falling. Worry I guess is that high tide at 3 pm could cause the river to back up, but other than that disaster appears to have been averted. The lowest levees were within 1-2’ of being topped so we dodged a bullet. There was one place in Burlington where the river exceeded the levee system, but only by a foot and it basically flows right back into a stream system. In this part of the valley it looks like a couple flooded basements/ground floors, but nothing worse. Around 11 am, a semi-truck flattened a car on the I-5 bridge between Mount Vernon and Burlington. I have no idea how the driver sustained only minor injuries because the car looked like a pancake, but that crash meant there was only one bridge open to cross the Skagit. Crash was cleared after a couple hours. 5 Quote Home Wx Station Stats (Since January 2008): Max Temp: 96.3F (2009) Min Temp: 2.0F (2008) Max Wind Gust: 45 mph (2018, 2021) Wettest Day: 2.34 (11/4/22) Avg Yearly Precip: 37" 10yr Avg Snow: 8.0" Snowfall Totals '08-09: 30" | '09-10: 0.5" | '10-11: 21" | '11-12: 9.5" | '12-13: 0.2" | '13-14: 6.2" | '14-15: 0.0" | '15-16: 0.25"| '16-17: 8.0" | '17-18: 0.9"| '18-19: 11.5" | '19-20: 11" | '20-21: 10.5" | '21-22: 21.75" | '22-23: 10.0" 2023-24: 7.0" (1/17: 3", 1/18: 1.5", 2/26: 0.5", 3/4: 2.0", Flakes: 1/11, 1/16) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chewbacca Defense Posted November 16, 2021 Report Share Posted November 16, 2021 16 minutes ago, Mr Marine Layer said: Stay-at-home orders. Kind of.... (as indicated by the first sentence) but really more like a "if you work on one side of the river and live on the other you better get home ASAP unless you plan on sleeping at work for the next 1-2 days" Fortunately I live and work south of the river, but my customer (one of the refineries) is north of the river. We got blown up with messages from them telling us if we were at the refinery and a non-essential worker, and lived south of the river, we needed to leave immediately. A lot of my co-workers are on-site, so its good they got the word out.

MossMan Posted November 16, 2021 Report Share Posted November 16, 2021 Had a mixed shower about a half hour ago. Currently 44 degrees. after I shut off the generator last night around 11pm before bed I took more pics of the powerless night sky. The wind was still gusting pretty good at that point. Nothing but moonlight, the sound of the wind, and the distant sound of generators running. 8 Quote Elevation 580’ Location a few miles east of I-5 on the Snohomish Co side of the Snohomish/Skagit border. I love snow/cold AND sun/warmth! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joshua Lake Oswego Posted November 16, 2021 Report Share Posted November 16, 2021 1 hour ago, TacomaWaWx said: The snowstorm this February was insane. I’d be happy if we only managed to get 1/4th of the amount of snow we got with that one this upcoming winter. 15.5” here with that one. I was about 3 miles too far south in February. I ended up with an inch or two of snow followed by at least an inch of ZR. It was brutal. Meanwhile, areas north of the Clackamas County line in the metro area got much more snow and much less freezing rain. Still damaging elsewhere, but I was in a terrible spot since I was far enough north to remain below freezing, but far enough south to not be influenced enough by the cold air pumping out of the Columbia Gorge.

The Columbia Gorge was the reason you were below freezing. Quote My preferences can beat up your preferences’ dad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
