BELLINGHAM, Wash.—As many parts of western Washington began drying out after a storm that dumped rain for days, waters in some areas continued rising, more people were urged to evacuate, and crews worked to restore power and reopen roads.
Officials in the small city of Sumas, Washington, near the Canada border, called the flooding devastating and said on Facebook Tuesday that an estimated 75 percent of the homes there had water damage. Hundreds of people were evacuated.
