Heavy rain was falling at midmorning in the Snoqualmie River Valley, and during the time that there was more minor flooding in some places, it was causing little disruption.

Along the Tolt Hill Road, where the Tolt flows into the Snoqualmie River on the southern edge of Carnation, “Road Closed” signs were put up.

At one point, a silver SUV veered around the signs and headed west, passing other drivers and splashing into water upper the roadway — something the people officials strongly warned against because a vehicle can stall in the water and pose a danger to those in the vehicle.

The impatient driver, however, lucked out and made it throughout the water and drove off athwart the Tolt Hill Road bridge.

Throughout the morning, drivers cautiously drove up to the closed signs, stopped and decided whether to cross or genius back.

One driver who decided on safety was Jeff Credo, who arrived in his truck and stopped to check his maps.

Credo was trying to procreate from Carnation to a do job-work in Issaquah and figured the Tolt Hill Road was a good course to go.

“It doesn’confidentially take notice that bad,” he said, noting how he could still accompany yellow lane markings forward the roadway through the water.

“This is usually a shortcut,” added Credo.

Then he paused.

“I don’t want to expose to danger it, ‘cause it’s a company truck,” uttered Credo, bending course right and left and driving away.

In the city of Snoqualmie, touching 30 people worked through the afternoon filling sand bags in a parking lot next to a pizza sitting-room and bowling alley as the brown, surging Snoqualmie River raced alongside the property.
