Atmospheric rivers carry long plumes of Pacific moisture. When one stalls over the Cascades foothills it can drop days of heavy rain on ground that is already saturated. The Snohomish River rises through the lowlands, groundwater climbs against foundations, and older combined sewers in the north end can back up through basement drains.
If water gets in anyway
Floodwater and sewage are Category 3 and need a different cleanup than a clean supply leak. See storm and river flood cleanup, crawl space water damage and sewage backup cleanup.
