Past emergencies and recovery needs in Raymond

Federal records show Pacific County designated in 25 declarations since 1964, led by flooding (11 declarations) and severe storms (10 declarations). If you plan across towns, check the page for South Bend as well; its own declaration history is listed there.

The most recent is Severe Storms, Straight-Line Winds, Flooding, Landslides, and Mudslides (major disaster declaration, DR-4906), declared April 7, 2026, with the incident beginning December 5, 2025. Flooding tends to knock out power and drainage first, leaving kitchens unable to cook or keep food cold even when the building is standing. By incident type, the count is flooding 11, severe storms 10, coastal storm 1, earthquake 1 and fishing losses 1. By decade: 1960s 1, 1970s 2, 1980s 2, 1990s 5, 2000s 8, 2010s 2 and 2020s 5. The records also list Severe Winter Storms, Straight-Line Winds, Flooding, Landslides, and Mudslides (DR-4775, April 28, 2024), Severe Winter Storms, Snowstorms, Straight-Line Winds, Flooding (DR-4650, March 29, 2022), Severe Winter Storm, Straight-Line Winds, Flooding, Landslides, and Mudslides (DR-4593, April 8, 2021), Severe Storms, Flooding, Landslides, and Mudslides (DR-4539, April 23, 2020) and Severe Winter Storms, Straight-Line Winds, Flooding, Landslides, Mudslides, Tornado (DR-4418, March 4, 2019).

NOAA's Storm Events Database holds 7 county-based severe-weather event records for Pacific County between 2016 and 2025, led by flood events (4) and high-wind and thunderstorm events (3). The costliest event with a reported dollar figure was a flood in January 2022, with about $990,000 in property damage. Floodwater leaves a building standing but unusable, so cooking, dishwashing and cold storage have to run from a trailer on higher, firm ground.

No wildfire of 1,000 acres or more has a mapped origin in Pacific County in NIFC's records since 2016. Smoke and power shutoffs travel farther than fires do, though: the nearest large fire on record began in Mason County, about 62 miles away, where the Bear Gulch fire burned 20,233 acres in 2025.

Declarations are federal designations for an area, not a record of damage at a particular site.

Infrastructure work around Raymond

Since October 2021, 17 federal construction contracts of $500,000 or more have named Pacific County as the place of work. The Department of Defense committed $32 million to “Shoalwater Dune Barrier Reconstruction, Tokeland Washington Task Order” in Pacific County, awarded May 2022 (award record). Another public record is “Baker Bay Pile Dike Repair Project Award,” a $18 million Department of Defense contract from October 2024 in Pacific County (award record). In January 2023, the Department of Homeland Security awarded a $1.4 million contract for “Maintenance Dredging at Station Cape Disappointment, Ilwaco, WA PSN- 21034736” in Pacific County, with work running to February 2023 (award record). USASpending.gov shows a $1.3 million Department of Defense contract, “Cape Disappointment Erosion Repair Award,” starting September 2023 in Pacific County (award record). Crews on projects like this rarely have a restaurant nearby, which is the case for cooking on site with a rented kitchen and a dishwashing trailer. A project in Cosmopolis, about 1,663 residents, would face the same phasing questions about gates, haul roads and pad space.

Renovation projects that close kitchens in Raymond

No federal contract for repairing or modernizing a building is on record for Pacific County. The nearest is in Wahkiakum County, about 25 miles away. Another public record is “US FWS Wa-Julia Butler Rfg-Barge Landing Repair,” a $987,000 Department of the Interior contract from June 2023 in Wahkiakum County (award record). Work inside an occupied facility tends to take its kitchen offline for weeks, so the plan for meals has to exist before the work starts. Aberdeen is on the same footing: the old kitchen closes on a date, and the temporary one has to be cooking before it.

Getting emergency equipment into Raymond

In Washington, the Washington Emergency Management Division (EMD) works with counties on emergency operations. Official staging areas and the roads that connect them to local emergency-management hubs are published by those agencies and should be checked there. Staging and access details differ again in Hoquiam, in Grays Harbor County, so check the published sources for that area before planning a route.

The nearest hospital in CMS's list is Willapa Harbor Hospital, a critical access hospital, in South Bend, about 3 miles from Raymond in a straight line.
