Heavy rainfall over the weekend prompted flood advisories for parts of western Washington Monday morning. The National Weather Service (NWS) issued a Flash Flood Watch for the west slopes of the north central Cascades and passes near the Bolt Creek Fire burn scar in Snohomish and King counties until Monday evening. The burn scar is near US 2, and the watch includes the city of Darrington. Sky Valley Chamber of Commerce Director Debbie Copple said the flooding on US 2 came after a series of tough times for businesses. "It's kind of been a one two punch, COVID and then they were just getting their feet back under them and the fires hit," Copple said. "What we really need is to keep the highway open, get people out here to support our folks. Come get dinner, get a beer, ride the train." She is hopeful that with the smoky air cleared, people will come out to enjoy the fall foliage, rent a cabin for the weekend, do some holiday shopping and patronize food and drink businesses. The Economic Alliance for Snohomish County is also hosting a fund-raising event November 10 and taking donations to help businesses impacted by the fire and associated closures.
