ESFMSO Lincoln, Sanders and Mineral Counties Moderate rainfall is expected to continue across the region through Wednesday morning. With the ground already saturated and local creeks and streams running high and fast from recent rains, this additional precipitation may lead to minor hydrologic issues such as: Minor over bank flows along smaller, quick-responding creeks and streams; localized ponding of water in low-lying and poor drainage areas; and standing water on some roadways, particularly in familiar trouble spots. Widespread flooding is not anticipated at this time. However, those living near waterways or in areas prone to nuisance flooding should monitor the situation.
