Time: 1232 PM Fri May 12, 2023 Forecaster: Brad Simmons ------------------------- Internal Message Status Flash Flood Prediction Program ------------------------- MESSAGE 2'S HAVE BEEN ALLOWED TO EXPIRE/CREEKS AND STREAMS WILL CONTINUE TO RUN HIGH/NO ADDITIONAL RAINFALL IS EXPECTED TODAY/TONIGHT Message 2’s (NWS Flood Watch/Flash Flood Watch) has been allowed to expire at noon as rain showers have tapered off through the morning. Generally dry conditions are expected through the afternoon and evening, but a leftover weak rain shower or sprinkle cannot be completely ruled out. No meaningful additional rainfall is expected. Rainfall totals over the past 3-days in the District range from 2.5-6.0” with isolated higher amounts. Due to all the moisture recently creeks and streams will continue to run high or even at or above flood stage for isolated drainages through the day but will slowly start to recede and conditions will begin to improve. Use caution in and around waterways within the District due to the high water levels being slow to recede. With a saturated ground in place any additional rain showers over the weekend will easily produce runoff and it will not take as much rain as usual to result in excessive runoff and flooding over the coming days. STORM RAINFALL POTENTIAL AND DURATION: No meaningful additional rain showers are expected for the remainder of the afternoon and evening with dry conditions expected overnight.
