* WHAT...Flooding caused by rain and snowmelt is possible. * WHERE...In Minnesota, Cook and Lake Counties. This includes the Tribal Lands of the Grand Portage Reservation.This also includes the Boundary Waters eastern and central area. * WHEN...From Monday morning through Tuesday morning. * IMPACTS...Excessive runoff may result in flooding of rivers, creeks, streams, and other low-lying and flood-prone locations. Flooding may occur in poor drainage and urban areas. * ADDITIONAL DETAILS... - Around 1 to 2 inches of rain is expected to fall. Eastern Cook County also has several inches of lingering snowpack.

The times presented here are based upon the solunar theory, which is the idea that the movements of fish and other animals are affected by the location of the sun and moon. The major periods are believed to be the times of the greatest animal activity and occur when the moon is directly overhead or underfoot (lunar transits). The minor periods also see increased activity and occur when the moon is rising or setting. The strongest activity occurs during full or new moons, and the weakest during quarter or three quarter moons. This is indicated by the Action Rating.
