Dec. 16 (UPI) -- Officials are warning that conditions could worsen parts of Washington state already reeling from deadly flash flooding as a blizzard conditions approach amid evacuations and warnings of further flooding.
At least one person has been reported dead after the body of a 33-year-old male was recovered from a vehicle that was completely submerged in water at 1:30 a.m. PST on Tuesday in Snohomish County, ABC News reported.
"The vehicle left the roadway and entered a lower farmland/ditch area containing approximately 6 feet of water," officials with Snohomish County Fire District 4 said in a prepared statement.
"Upon arrival, deputies located the vehicle in the water," they said. "Fire rescue swimmers made contact with the vehicle and removed the driver from the car."
