...FLOOD WATCH REMAINS IN EFFECT THROUGH THURSDAY AFTERNOON...
* WHAT...Flooding caused by a combination of rain, snowmelt, and ice
jams is possible.
* WHERE...All of northern New York and northern and central Vermont.
* WHEN...Through Thursday afternoon.
* IMPACTS...Excessive runoff from snowmelt and rainfall will cause
sharp river rises, likely resulting in river ice break up. Ice
jams will be possible, along with rapid onset flooding. Flooding
of rivers, creeks, streams, and other low-lying and flood-prone
locations will be possible and creeks and streams may rise out of
their banks.
* ADDITIONAL DETAILS...
- Mild temperatures will lead to rapid rises on area rivers
through early this week. This will be followed by widespread
rain today into Thursday. Rising rivers will cause river ice
to break up and flow, potentially resulting in ice jams and
associated flooding. As rain moves in today, the threat will
turn more toward open water flooding for those waterways that
have lost their ice. Any open water flooding will likely
persist through Thursday.

PRECAUTIONARY/PREPAREDNESS ACTIONS...
You should monitor later forecasts and be alert for possible Flood
Warnings. Those living in areas prone to flooding should be prepared
to take action should flooding develop.
