...FLASH FLOOD WARNING REMAINS IN EFFECT UNTIL 245 AM MDT WEDNESDAY
FOR CENTRAL SHERIDAN COUNTY...

At 1156 PM MDT, Public reported flash flooding on the Little Tongue
River in Little Tongue Canyon about 7 miles southwest of Dayton at
846 PM MDT. Emergency management and local law enforcement reported
landslides on US HWY 14 southwest of Dayton in the Elk Burn Scar.
Other areas southwest of Dayton over the Elk Burn Scar may
experience debris flow and flash flooding. Between 0.5 and 0.8
inches of rain have fallen over the area this evening. Additional
rainfall amounts of 0.2 to 0.5 inches are possible in the warned
area overnight into Wednesday morning, which could lead to further
debris flows or landslides and flooding.

HAZARD...Flash flooding and landslides caused by thunderstorms.

SOURCE...Emergency management, law enforcement and public
         reported.

IMPACT...Flash flooding of small creeks and streams, urban areas,
         highways, streets and underpasses as well as other poor
         drainage and low-lying areas.

Some locations that will experience flash flooding include...areas
along the Little Tongue River.  This includes people along the
Little Tongue River near Dayton.

People in the Dayton area near the Little Tongue should remain alert
and be prepared to move to higher ground if necessary.

PRECAUTIONARY/PREPAREDNESS ACTIONS...

Be especially cautious at night when it is harder to recognize the
dangers of flooding.

Be aware of your surroundings and do not drive on flooded roads.
Obey any road closures.

Move away from recently burned areas. Life-threatening flooding of
creeks, roads and normally dry arroyos is likely. The heavy rains
will likely trigger rockslides, mudslides and debris flows in steep
terrain, especially in and around these areas.

Flooding is occurring or is imminent. It is important to know where
you are relative to streams, rivers, or creeks which can become
killers in heavy rains. Campers and hikers should avoid streams or
creeks.
