HYDROLOGIC OUTLOOK ISSUED MARCH 31 AT 3:16PM EDT
ESFGRR
SOILS ARE GETTING SATURATED AND WATER LEVELS ON SOME OF OUR RIVERS
CONTINUE TO RISE AFTER SEVERAL RECENT RAINSTORMS. THE NEXT CHANCE
FOR HEAVY RAIN MOVES INTO OUR AREA ON WEDNESDAY, BRINGING THE
POTENTIAL FOR AN INCH OR MORE OF RAIN TO MOST OF SOUTHERN LOWER
MICHIGAN. THIS COULD RESULT IN SOME FLOODING ISSUES BOTH DURING THE
STORMS AND ALSO LATER THIS WEEK AS THE WATER MOVES INTO AND THROUGH
THE RIVER SYSTEMS.
THE GOOD NEWS IS THAT WATER LEVELS ARE CURRENTLY NEAR OR SLIGHTLY
BELOW AVERAGE ON THE GRAND AND KALAMAZOO RIVERS, BUT SOME OF THE
TRIBUTARIES - ESPECIALLY AROUND THE LANSING AREA - COULD OVERFLOW
INTO THE MINOR FLOOD CATEGORY BY THURSDAY MORNING. SIMILARLY, THE
MUSKEGON RIVER IS ALREADY RUNNING HIGH, AND AN ADDITIONAL INCH OR
MORE OF RAIN HAS THE POTENTIAL TO CAUSE SOME MINOR FLOODING THERE AS
WELL.
WHILE WE'LL CONTINUE TO ADJUST OUR RAIN AND RIVER FORECAST OVER THE
NEXT 2 DAYS, NOW IS THE TIME FOR FOLKS LIVING OR PLAYING NEAR THE
RIVERS IN WEST MICHIGAN TO PREPARE FOR RISING WATER LEVELS LATER
THIS WEEK.
YOUR LATEST FORECAST IS ALWAYS AT WWW.WEATHER.GOV GRR
THIS STATEMENT WILL BE UPDATED TUESDAY AFTERNOON OR EARLIER. |
