The river has been so dry and low, and the nearby lake was literally dry. I was just talking to my blog-friend John, and he gave a wish that the waters of heaven would come down and fill this channel. You can see the post and comments HERE. Apparently his blessings carry weight!! The water is still rising tonight….OK John! The channel is full! Let’s shut off the good wishes before they are completely flooded out downstream! You can see the water in motion HERE and a huge tree rushing by on the water HERE. The size of the debris that passes is awe-inspiring!
The lake that was dry mud last week is full! The ducks are happy and the boats make a lot more sense now.
What a lot of water! I clicked your links – loved the video footage you took; what a noise the river makes! I finished your book last weekend but forget to tell you. I loved it!

Oh thanks, Clare! Glad you enjoyed the book and the high water post. It is extremely loud when it rises, and it’s like living by a waterfall until it goes down a bit. I’m glad you clicked the link because it’s just not captured unless you can hear it and see how fast the river flows. Such fun to hear you loved my book! If you ever go on Amazon, I’d love it if you would add your star rating and give a quick review…even if your review is to just say you loved it. Thanks for reading it. I really appreciate the support, and it’s great to have shared my story with you.

Just enough though…:-)
I saw the video – so powerful! I drove out to Duvall today, down through Carnation and Fall City and then back up to Kirkland – so much water! The Snoqualmie River Valley really , floods easily doesn’t it?

I think it flooded more easily since it hadn’t really rained in so long…lots of debris and sediment, says my geologist friend. But yes, it rains heavily and the water levels change quickly when the waters flow down from the mountains. Glad you saw it first hand as well as in the video, too.
