The wider storm

A slow moving cold front associated with an atmospheric river of subtropical moisture produced heavy rain across Southwest Washington that resulted in flooding of the Grays River near Rosburg...despite the preceding low river stage. The heavy rain also resulted in a minor mud slide in Washougal as well as minor flooding in Camas.
