...Heavy Rain Expected in Coos, Curry, Douglas, and Josephine
counties...

Two rounds of moderate to heavy rain will impact the region this
week. The first arrives tonight into early Wednesday, bringing 1 to
2 inches of rain across Douglas, Coos, Curry and Josephine counties,
with up to 3 inches in the coastal mountains of Curry County. An
atmospheric river arrives early Thursday and persists through Friday
afternoon, bringing another round of moderate to heavy rain.
Rainfall amounts of 3 to 6 inches are expected, with the highest
amounts likely in Curry County.

Small streams and creeks are likely to run high and could result in
nuisance flooding along with ponding of water on roadways during
periods of heavy rain. Significant rises on mainstem rivers are
expected, but the overall concern for widespread river flooding is
low at this time due to antecedent dry conditions and minimal
snowpack. We will be monitoring rivers in the Coquille and Umpqua
Basins for flooding potential.

The exact scenario for flooding remains uncertain. This product will
be updated as necessary. Watches and warnings may be issued by the
National Weather Service if this situation worsens.
