Moderate to heavy rain and low elevation snowmelt Sunday 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 and ditches causing water to back-up and pond in low lying and poor drainage areas. Additionally, ice jams could develop on any rivers, creeks, or streams with existing ice cover and cause localized flooding. Rivers in these areas will continue to run high through next week with some waterways potentially reaching bankfull. Stay tuned to the forecast for the latest temperature and precipitation trends, along with any warnings or advisories that may be issued. $$ TL
