HYDROLOGIC OUTLOOK
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE LA CROSSE WI
335 PM CDT FRI MAY 17 2013

...PERIODS OF HEAVY RAIN INTO NEXT WEEK...

SOME LOCATIONS RECEIVED 2 TO ALMOST 2 1/2 INCHES OF RAINFALL TODAY.
THIS RESULTED IN STANDING WATER IN FIELDS...FULL CULVERTS AND
DITCHES...PONDING ON ROADWAYS...AND BACKED UP STORM SEWERS.

ADDITIONAL STORMS TONIGHT COULD DROP HEAVY RAINFALL ON MOIST
SOILS...RESULTING IN FURTHER FLOODING PROBLEMS. ADVISORIES OR
WARNINGS COULD BE NEEDED.

SATURDAY LOOKS DRY...BUT THE SUNDAY THROUGH WEDNESDAY PERIOD CALLS
FOR ANOTHER 1 TO 3 INCHES OF RAIN. IF THE RAIN IS HEAVY AND COMES
IN A SHORT PERIOD OF TIME...LOCALIZED FLOODING WOULD BECOME A
CONCERN.

DEPENDING ON WHERE HEAVY RAIN FALLS OVER THE NEXT FEW DAYS...THE
AREA OF CONCERN COULD BE EXPANDED...AND A FLASH FLOOD WATCH MAY
BE NEEDED.
