Hydrologic Outlook

...INCREASED FLOWS IN STREAMS, CREEKS AND RIVERS DUE TO RAIN THROUGH
WEDNESDAY...

Lincoln, Sanders and Mineral Counties

Moderate rainfall is expected to continue across the region through
Wednesday morning.  With the ground already saturated and local
creeks and streams running high and fast from recent rains, this
additional precipitation may lead to minor hydrologic issues such as:

Minor over bank flows along smaller, quick-responding creeks and
streams; localized ponding of water in low-lying and poor drainage
areas; and standing water on some roadways, particularly in familiar
trouble spots.

Widespread flooding is not anticipated at this time. However, those
living near waterways or in areas prone to nuisance flooding should
monitor the situation.
