Flood Advisory issued April 28 at 6:59PM CDT until April 29 at 7:00PM CDT by NWS Duluth MN

Effective: Tue April 28, 2026, 6:59 PM
Expires: Wed April 29, 2026, 7:00 PM

* WHAT...Small stream flooding caused by rain and snowmelt continues. * WHERE...In Minnesota, Cook and Lake Counties. * WHEN...Until 700 PM CDT Wednesday. * IMPACTS...Minor flooding in low-lying and poor drainage areas. River or stream flows are elevated. Flooding is occurring on area rivers that are popular for waterfall viewing. * ADDITIONAL DETAILS... - At 655 PM CDT Tuesday, river gauges continue to suggest that there are areas of high water and localized minor flooding from Monday's rainfall. No additional rainfall is expected. One to two inches of rain that has already fallen and snowmelt runoff in Cook County will keep river levels elevated today. The Baptism River and Beaver River in Lake County are also experiencing high flows today due to runoff from the one to two inches of rainfall yesterday and last night. - Some locations that will experience flooding include... Grand Marais, Gunflint Lake, Two Harbors, Silver Bay, Grand Portage, Clear Lake, Lutsen, Tofte, Beaver Bay, Dumbbell Lake, Forest Center, Temperance River State Park, George Manitou State Park, Taconite Harbor, Sugar Loaf Cove, Isabella, Little Saganaga Lake, Little Marais, Finland and Alpine Lake. - Flood safety information can be found at www.weather.gov/safety/flood.

Turn around, don't drown when encountering flooded roads. Most flood deaths occur in vehicles. Campers and hikers should avoid flooded trail crossings. If camping at a site along or near the banks of rivers or streams, move away from those locations and seek higher ground. Trails in hilly terrain can quickly become unstable during or shortly after heavy rainfall.

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.
