| Episode Narrative |
A period of warm temperatures earlier in the month led to rapid rises on small streams as snow melt rapidly from mid and high elevations. High temperatures at low to mid elevations were in the upper 70s to low 80s June 4th through June 6th. Although temperatures cooled into the low 70s through June 10th, small streams continued to rise as snow melt from high elevations made its way into low elevation drainages. A wet storm system on June 8th exacerbated the situation with flows on small creeks and streams peaking by June 10th. |

Silver Falls Creek (near the upper end of the Entiat drainage) went out of its banks and flooded two camp sites at the Silver Falls Campground. |
