NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE GRAND RAPIDS MI
309 PM EDT MON MAR 9 2026
..HEAVY RAIN AND FLOOD RISKS RETURN TUESDAY NIGHT
SIGNIFICANT PONDED AND STANDING WATER COULD IMPACT TRAVEL TUESDAY
NIGHT AND WEDNESDAY MORNING AS HEAVY RAIN MOVES BACK INTO THE AREA,
ESPECIALLY ALONG AND SOUTH OF I-96. SATURATED SOILS FROM RECENT
RAINFALL WILL MAKE THIS PROBLEM WORSE, ESPECIALLY IF STORMS TRACK
OVER URBAN AREAS REPEATEDLY.
AS THIS WATER FINDS ITS WAY INTO THE RIVERS, SOME MINOR RIVER
FLOODING IS EXPECTED LATER THIS WEEK, AS WATER LEVELS ARE STILL HIGH
AFTER LAST WEEKENDS RAINS. WITH RAIN TOTALS OF 1-2 INCHES POSSIBLE,
THE MOST AT-RISK RIVERS FOR FLOODING ARE THE MID-SIZED TRIBUTARIES
ON THE GRAND RIVER, INCLUDING THE MAPLE RIVER, SYCAMORE CREEK, AND
THE RED CEDAR RIVER. IF RAIN AMOUNTS OVERPERFORM, MINOR FLOODING ON
THE GRAND RIVER ITSELF WILL BE POSSIBLE.
THE LATEST WATER LEVEL DATA IS ALWAYS AVAILABLE AT WEATHER.GOV/GRR
THIS STATEMENT WILL BE UPDATED ON TUESDAY, MARCH 10, 2026.
