Hydrologic Outlook issued April 10 at 1:10AM PDT by NWS Elko NV

ESFLKN

Near record warmth is expected in portions of Northern and Central
Nevada thru the end of the week. This will accelerate snowmelt and
enhance runoff into area creeks and rivers.

Creeks and rivers that are susceptible to rapid water level rises
will be most impacted. Waterways affected include, but are not
limited to Martin Creek in Humboldt County, the Owyhee River in Elko
County, the Bruneau River in Elko County, and Salmon Falls Creek in
Elko County.

Salmon Falls Creek is expected to rise close to action stage Friday
into Saturday. Action stage is the level which some type of
mitigation is needed in preparation for possible minor flooding.
Water may cause minor impacts and be a nuisance to persons near the
creek. However, at
this time, Salmon Falls Creek and Wildhorse Dam are not anticipated
to reach minor flood stage (10.0 feet and 6,208 feet, respectively).

Residents and outdoor enthusiasts are urged to exercise caution when
walking near rapidly flowing, cold water. Hypothermia can occur
quickly if someone were to fall into cold, swift water with risk of
also being carried downstream.
