Expected Conditions

Heavy rain is occurring with total amounts of 30 to 40 mm expected. Rain at times heavy will fall tonight. Light rain will continue through the day on Saturday. As the ground remains frozen and unable to absorb water effectively, periods of heavier rainfall may result in localized flooding and washouts. Water will likely pool on roads and in low-lying areas.
