I’m sure you’ve all heard about the crazy flooding that’s been going on around here in Washington. The damage it has caused has been insanely crazy. It only reminds me of the 2007 flood, although from what I understand it was no where near as bad as that. They did indeed close down I-5, and if you’re from this area, you’d know that I-5 is a major way to get from Portland to Seattle, or well anywhere, going north and south. It’s a big deal. Let me put it to you this way: I was supposed to get some medical goods from Portland, but since I-5 was closed, they couldn’t deliver it. The driver simply had no way to get to me except via a super roundabout way, which would take the driver perhaps 3 or 4 hours out of the way. That’s crazy. Now for the real thing. Some actual pictures from I-90, Snoqualmie pass. Thankfully I’m no where near either of these places! (And who knew that WA DOT had a flickr page?)
