Status Update

The Cowlitz County EOC is not activated at this point, but will be working extended hours this evening. The heavy rains still appear to be heading straight for SW Washington and will begin overnight. If you live in a flood prone area, it would be a good idea to make sure your home and family are ready. You can find flood safety tips on the DEM Website and the latest forecast for our area can be found on the National Weather Service website. Be sure to catch our esteemed director Grover Laseke discussing flooding potential and weather issues on Channel 8 news at either 5:00pm or 6:00pm this evening.
