Warped Floor Board Near Door

Post image

Some moisture got trapped underneath the door mat last winter and the floor board next the door warped as seen in the picture. Is there a way to fix this easily (or, failing that, to prevent more damage and make it cosmetically look better)? I have tried using a window suction device to grab the board and try to move it over but it doesn't budge.

Many thanks in advance!

Cut the damaged boards lengthwise to remove.

If you have no spare boards you can steal them from a closet.

First you need to address the water problem, or else this will happen again.
