Widespread rain amounts of a half inch to an inch on Tuesday will once again raise concerns for mud and rock
slides.
Creeks and small streams will also experience rises Tuesday and Tuesday night in response to runoff from rain.
Fortunately, temperatures Tuesday and Wednesday will be cool, which is good news. There will be little contribution from mountain snow melt during the rain event Tuesday.
A flood watch means there is a potential for rock slides and rises on creeks and streams based on current forecasts. You should monitor later forecasts and be alert for possible flood warnings.
