Flood Watch issued April 26 at 3:09PM MDT until April 28 at 6:00PM MDT by NWS Billings MT

Runoff from a combination of heavy rain and some mid elevation snow
melt may cause minor flooding of streams and low lying areas near
the foothills.

* WHAT…Flooding caused by rain and snowmelt is possible.

* WHERE…A portion of south central Montana, including the
following areas, Absaroka/Beartooth Mountains, Beartooth
Foothills, Crazy Mountains, Livingston Area, Melville Foothills,
Northern Carbon, Northern Park, Northern Stillwater, Northern
Sweet Grass, Paradise Valley, Red Lodge Foothills and Southeastern
Carbon.

* WHEN…From Sunday afternoon through Monday afternoon.

* IMPACTS…Excessive runoff may result in minor flooding of streams
and other low-lying and flood-prone locations close to the
foothills. Some roads may become impassable. Now is the time to
move equipment and livestock to higher ground away from waterways.
Recent burn scars may be more susceptible to produce flooding,
including the Robertson Draw south of Red Lodge.

* ADDITIONAL DETAILS…
– Rain and high elevation snow is expected to develop Sunday
afternoon and continue through Monday morning. Rainfall
amounts are expected to range from 1 to 3 inches, while
elevations above 7000 feet see heavy snow. There remains
uncertainty regarding exact snow levels and how much snowmelt
occurs with this system. Snow levels may fall enough to
produce some wet snow at Red Lodge and Nye.
