WHATCOM COUNTY, WA (MyBellinghamNow.com) – The ongoing storm systems impacting the Puget Sound region are escalating.

The National Weather Service issued a coastal flood advisory for San Juan County and the lowlands of western Whatcom County effective from 5 a.m. to 11 a.m. Wednesday, Nov. 11.

This coincides with the preexisting wind advisory for the region effective until 7 p.m. Wednesday.

Water along shorelines and near low coastal areas may reach between 1.5 and 2 ft above ground during the high tide. This may result in some minor flooding in parking lots, parks and roads.

Isolated road closures are possible at this time.

The NWS notes that over the course this week water levels are expected to rise in rivers, but no river flooding is predicted at this point locally.
