Description
The warm weather this weekend doesn’t mean the water is warm in western Washington. From lakes to rivers, the temperatures are frigid and can cause cold water shock.
The King County Sheriff’s Office (KCSO) Marine Rescue Unit said there have already been drowning deaths this year.
The cold temperatures restrict breathing and lower your blood pressure. If a person is not wearing a life jacket they can then drown quickly.
