SEATTLE (AP) -- Three rivers remain at flood stage in Washington state today as officials begin to assess the damage from last week's floods, mudslides and avalanches.

State emergency officials say some National Guard troops remain deployed at traffic control points in Lewis County, which was one of the state's hardest hit counties by flooding.

The rivers still at flood stage are the Yakima River at Kiona in Benton County, the Cedar River in the Renton area, and the Chehalis River at Porter in Thurston County. All three are expected to recede to below flood stage by midday tomorrow.
