Where the report was made, with tornadoes recorded within 15 miles over the years.

What the National Weather Service wrote

Minor flooding was reported on Titus Creek, stemming from log jam on Mill Creek that pushed more water into Titus Creek. As a result of high water on Titus Creek, a tractor was flooded. The Touchet River, 1.5 to 3 miles east of Waitsburg, changed course and began channeling water against a resident's property. The resulting erosion caused two outbuilding to topple into the water.

The wider storm

Snow water equivalents near 200% of normal in the Blue Mountains coupled with warm temperatures and near record rainfall total for April produced river flooding along the Walla Walla River and tributaries.

Began near Kooskooskie (46.0261, -118.2045).
