..RIVER AND STREAM LEVELS TO PEAK LATER TODAY/TONIGHT
SMALL STREAMS AND CREEKS HAVE SEEN RAPID SPIKES IN WATER LEVELS
OVERNIGHT AND WILL CONTINUE TO SEE RISES THROUGHOUT THE DAY TODAY.
MAIN STEM RIVERS HAVE ALSO SEEN DRAMATIC RISES. WATER LEVELS ARE
EXPECTED TO PEAK TONIGHT INTO TUESDAY MORNING, AND THEN SLOWLY
LOWER AS COLDER TEMPERATURES RETURN AND HELP TO SLOW SNOW MELT.
WITH STRONG THUNDERSTORMS OCCURRING TODAY, THERE IS THE POSSIBILITY
FOR HEAVY RAINFALL FROM STORMS, WHICH WILL FURTHER ADD TO RISING WATER
LEVELS. THERE IS A HIGH POTENTIAL FOR STREAMS AND CREEKS TO SPILL
OUT OF THEIR BANKS BY TUESDAY MORNING.
USE CAUTION IF NEAR STREAMS AND CREEKS TODAY, AS WATER WILL BE
RUNNING VERY HIGH AND FAST, WITH WATER TEMPERATURES HOVERING
AROUND 50 DEGREES FAHRENHEIT.
