Description:
ESFRIW
The interaction between increasing tropical moisture and an
approaching midlevel area of low pressure will bring widespread rain
showers across a large portion of western Wyoming starting late
Saturday night. Given the high moisture content, some areas could
feature locally heavy rainfall and possibly lead to localized
flooding. Poor drainage areas, urban areas, and steep terrain will be
the most susceptible locations for this isolated flooding.
Many locations across western Wyoming could see 1 to 2 inches of
rainfall through Tuesday morning. Remember, if you encounter a
flooded roadway, Turn Around, Don't Drown!
