POSTED December 19, 2025 – 6 p.m.

A Level 1 (GET READY) evacuation notice for areas along the east and south bank of the White River near Roegner Park.

  • Protect your property
  • Gather supplies
  • Talk with your household and neighbors

Evacuation levels may change with little notice. Please continue to monitor official City of Auburn communications and visit auburnwa.gov/flood for the most up-to-date information.
