Hydrologic Outlook
Severity: Unknown
The severity of this alert is not known.
Alert in Effect
From 9:08 PM (CDT), April 14, until 5:15 AM (CDT), April 17
Description
...EXTENDED PERIOD OF MINOR TO MODERATE RIVER FLOODING AND HIGH FLOWS, ALONG WITH AREAS OF LOW-LAND FLOODING, EXPECTED INTO NEXT WEEK...
An unseasonably warm airmass allowed for a quick snowmelt last week, with only far northern Wisconsin still reporting snow on the ground. Due to the anomalously high snowpack that was in place, a lot of water will be flowing through the rivers into next week. Minor to moderate flooding is expected to continue along streams, rivers, and other low-lying areas that regularly experience spring snowmelt flooding. Flows will continue to increase as well, especially on the Menominee. Additional precipitation today into early next week will likely bring new and/or continue or enhance ongoing flooding concerns, especially for area rivers that are currently near/at/above flood stage or are susceptible to low-land flooding. If you live in or commute through an area that is currently flooding or has previously experienced spring melt flooding, expect impacts to continue and/or prepare for potential impacts. The next update to this outlook is expected by 8:00 AM CDT Monday April, 17, 2023.
Urgency
Take action in the near future.
