Flood advisory issued |
June 19, 2013 |
The National Weather Service, Spokane, has
issued a small stream flood advisory in central
Boundary County after heavy overnight rains that
are expected to continue through the rest of the
day. Between three quarters of an inch to an inch of rain fell overnight from a system that has stalled over the region, with the heaviest rain falling in Boundary County. Up to an additional inch to inch and a half of rain could fall by this evening, and even more rain is expected to fall overnight and through the early part of next week. Expect increased runoff in small streams in the area, particularly those on the West Side, as well as ponding water in fields and low-lying roads. |
