• Needs A Savior: 1930 Chrysler Series 77 Sedan (barnfinds.com) — A rare 1930 Chrysler Series 77 sedan is currently for sale right here in Puyallup, offering local classic-car fans a chance at a true project vehicle. The long-stored car still has its original upholstery and paint, a turning but long-dormant inline-six engine, and new tires, leaving potential buyers to decide what this Depression-era sedan is worth today.
   

• How much water flooded parts of Western Washington? At least 3 Lake Washingtons' worth (kuow.org) — Recent atmospheric river storms dumped enough rain on Western Washington’s watersheds, including the Puyallup basin, to equal more than three Lake Washingtons of water in just ten days. Scientists say the event’s unusually long duration overwhelmed rivers and soils from the Nooksack down to the Lewis, helping explain the severe flooding many communities experienced this month.
