Heavy rainfall and snowmelt led to flooding across northern Idaho and in Chelan county. Most of the flooding in northern Idaho would last until April 7, with isolated events occurring throughout. Hauser Lake overflowed its boundaries, flooding portions of Hauser Lake Road between Matheson and Ragged Ridge roads. A culvert measuring 24 inches in diameter and 50 feet in length became plugged allowing water to run over Old Coeur D 'Alene River Road, located 7 miles north-northeast of Enaville. The water washed out some of the shoulder and road surface. The culvert was severely damaged and would need to be replaced. In Chelan county, minor flooding of First Creek was reported, which resulted in some damage along First Creek Road through April. Numerous landslides were reported throughout the flood event due to saturated soils.
