Creeks and streams may rise out of their banks. The most prone areas for flooding will be where ice jams typically develop. * ADDITIONAL DETAILS... - An intense storm system moving from the central plains across the central Great Lakes will send a surge of Spring like warmth the across our region Tuesday and Wednesday. Temperatures will soar into the 50s over the western counties on Tuesday with the mercury remaining well above freezing Tuesday night. Temperatures will then climb well into the 50s for the bulk of the region on Wednesday while being accompanied by a general half to three quarters of an inch of rainfall. The fast melt off of the snowpack will combine with this rainfall to cause significant rises to area tributaries with flooding becoming possible. Flooding concerns will be particularly elevated in areas where tributaries are prone to ice jam flooding. - http://www.weather.gov/safety/flood You should monitor later forecasts and be alert for possible Flood Warnings.
