After last week's record river flooding in Washington state, more atmospheric rivers are taking aim at the West, set to bring heavy rain, mountain snow and damaging winds to Washington, Oregon and California.

Another atmospheric river will bring more rain to the Pacific Northwest later this week, heightening an extensive flood threat.

Beyond dam breaches near Seattle, the barrage of atmospheric rivers in recent days has increased the threat of flooding and landslides in the region. Residents should pay attention to the National Weather Service and local authorities throughout the week for guidance and information.

Hundreds of thousands woke up without power on Wednesday after Washington already had two levee failures this week amid major flooding.

"The early storm will not be as strong as the event we saw early last week, though it will impact the same areas," a meteorologist told Newsweek.

Seattle experienced dramatically less rainfall and had only a few localized road floods. That's due to the city's unique geographic landscape.

The National Weather Service released a flood warning at 11:17 a.m. on Wednesday in effect until Friday at 5:30 a.m. for Tillamook County.

Washington state residents are bracing for possible mudslides and levee failures from floodwaters that are expected to be slow to recede.

Drier weather is coming, but flooding effects are likely to continue for days across portions of western Washington state and northwestern Oregon.

While the torrential downpour caused by an atmospheric river has slowed down, rivers and waterways continue to rise and flood in the state.

Flooding has disrupted life across Western Washington and navigating the disaster can be difficult to manage.
