...RAIN AND LOW ELEVATION SNOWMELT WILL CAUSE RISES ON RIVERS,
CREEKS, AND STREAMS TODAY AND MONDAY POTENTIALLY LEADING TO MINOR
FLOOD IMPACTS...

Moderate to heavy rain and low elevation snowmelt today and
Monday will lead to rises on rivers, creeks, and streams across
portions of southeast Oregon and southwest Idaho (particularly the
Weiser River Basin). Saturated or frozen soils in some areas will
increase runoff. Snow and ice may clog culverts, storm drains, and
side ditches causing water to back-up and pond in low lying and
poor drainage areas. Additionally, ice jams could develop on any
waterways with existing ice cover and cause localized flooding.
Rivers in these areas will continue to run high through the week
with some rivers potentially reaching bankfull or minor flood
stage.

Those with interests along rivers, creeks and streams should
continue to monitor the forecast as there is uncertainty in how
much response the lower elevation rivers, creeks and streams will
see. Stay tuned to the forecast for the latest temperature and
precipitation trends, along with any warnings or advisories that
may be issued.
