You guys crack me up. First it's too dry so you wanna re-channel creeks to help the poor salmon. Whatcha gunna do now that it's too wet. Build some dams? Maybe put out some nets to keep the poor spawners from washing down river? Gotta keep them nutrients in da river.

Get a clue! Weather comes and weather goes round and round and nobody knows what the heck it'll be like a week from now. One thing is certain! It would not be normal for the weather to conform to what ever might be average. It gets hot or cold or wet or dry or windy or calm and the tides come in and go out again endlessly over and over again.

The said warning is a non-event - It's a watch! ------------

THE MOIST AIR AND CAUSE THE HEAVIEST RAIN ON THE WINDWARD SLOPES OF
THE OLYMPICS AND NORTH CASCADES.

WITHIN THE FLOOD WATCH AREA THAT FACE THE GREATEST THREAT OF FLOODING
INCLUDE THE SKOKOMISH...SATSOP...AND ELWHA. OTHER RIVERS ON THE
OLYMPIC PENINSULA...WITHOUT FORMAL FORECAST POINTS...COULD ALSO RISE

IN ADDITION...THE SKAGIT RIVER NEAR MOUNT VERNON IS OF CONCERN. IT IS
UNLIKELY THE RIVER WILL RISE TO ITS FLOOD STAGE OF 28 FEET
