...PROLONGED PERIODS OF HEAVY RAINFALL MAY LEAD TO FLOODING EARLY
NEXT WEEK...
A STALLED FRONTAL BOUNDARY EXTENDING FROM THE PLAINS TO NORTHERN
GREAT LAKES WILL FOCUS A CORRIDOR OF NEARLY CONTINUOUS RAINFALL,
OCCASIONALLY HEAVY, ACROSS THE UPPER MIDWEST FROM SUNDAY NIGHT
THROUGH EARLY WEDNESDAY.
WIDESPREAD RAINFALL AMOUNTS WILL RANGE FROM 2 TO 3 INCHES THROUGH
WEDNESDAY, BUT A CORRIDOR OF 4 TO 6 INCHES COULD SET UP SOMEWHERE
ACROSS SOUTHERN AND EASTERN MINNESOTA INTO WESTERN AND NORTHERN
WISCONSIN.
THIS RAIN WILL CAUSE RISES ON RIVERS AND STREAMS AND WILL LIKELY
LEAD TO FLOODING IN SOME AREAS, ESPECIALLY IN THE CORRIDOR OF
HEAVIEST RAINFALL. IN ADDITION, LOWLAND FLOODING MAY ALSO OCCUR
AS THE GROUND QUICKLY BECOMES SATURATED. KEEP UPDATED ON THE
LATEST FORECAST FOR ANY FUTURE WATCHES AND WARNINGS.
