Sections of US 101 near Port Angeles and US 2 Gold Bar-Skykomish were closed due fallen trees and water over the road.|At the Sultan fire station, employees moved fire trucks as flood water inched closer.|On Main Street, the water rose so quickly that one woman's only option was to escape out her front window.|Heavy rain swelled a creek which kept a 15 mile stretch of US highway 2 closed after finding that the storm-fed creek had undermined the bridge foundation.
