986 FGUS75 KRIW 271812 ESFRIW WYC019-280600- Hydrologic Outlook National Weather Service Riverton WY 1212 PM MDT Tue May 27 2025 Showers and thunderstorms will continue to develop over Johnson County this afternoon and evening. Weather models depict a nearly stationary boundary, focused on the eastern foothills of the Bighorn Mountains. With precipitable water values in the 0.7 to 0.8 inch range, which is well above normal, it`s worth watching this area for training storms and isolated flash flooding. There is a low chance for flooding in any given location, but the low-end potential is there today given the ingredients present. By midnight, thunderstorms and higher rainfall rates are forecast to end, but light rain lingers through sunrise Wednesday, with another round of showers Wednesday afternoon. $$ VandenBoogart
