Hydrologic Outlook
National Weather Service Duluth MN
525 PM CST Mon Nov 18 2024

...HEAVY RAIN MAY LEAD TO HIGH FLOWS IN NORTH SHORE RIVERS AND
CREEKS TUESDAY AND INTO THE MIDDLE OF THIS WEEK...

An incoming weather system is forecast to bring 2 to 4 inches of
rain to the North Shore beginning late tonight and lasting into
Tuesday early afternoon. While drought conditions and dry soils
will allow some of the first part of this moderate to heavy
rainfall to soak into the ground, eventually runoff will begin to
occur Tuesday. This runoff will feed creeks and rivers along the
North Shore that flow into Lake Superior. Widespread flooding is
not expected at this time.

As flows increase on area rivers that are popular for waterfall
viewing, visitors should be careful due to slippery rocks, cliffs,
and strong currents. If recreating Tuesday or potentially
Wednesday, have a plan in case low-lying campsites have standing
water and to move away from the banks of rivers and creeks.

If another update to this outlook is needed, it will be issued by
4:00 AM Tuesday, November 19, 2024.
