increasing combined with mostly frozen grounds poses a flooding
risk. Flows in smaller rivers, streams and creeks may increase
quickly and reach critical levels. Larger stem rivers will begin to
increase flows.
* WHAT...Flooding caused by excessive rainfall and snowmelt is
possible.
* WHERE...Portions of Central Highlands, Far Eastern, and North
Woods Maine, including the following areas, in Central Highlands
Maine, Central Piscataquis and Northern Penobscot. In Far Eastern
Maine, Southeast Aroostook. In North Woods Maine, Northern
Piscataquis.
* WHEN...Through Friday evening.
* IMPACTS...Small rivers, creeks and streams may rise out of their
banks. Flooding may occur in poor drainage and urban areas.
* ADDITIONAL DETAILS...
- Rainfall of 2 to 2.5 inches will combine with up to 1.75" of
snowmelt to cause urban and low lying flooding of poor
drainage areas. This may also cause small stream and creek
flooding. Washouts of dirt roads and significant mud may make
travel difficult on dirt roads.
