Hydrologic Outlook

611 PM SST Thu Oct 8 2026

...Flash Flooding and landslide potential for Tuesday through
Sunday of next week...

An active trough to the north is projected to drift southward and
move over the territory by around Tuesday of next week. This
trough is likely to remain strong and active through the duration
of next week, and may even intensify with embedded low pressure
centers. Widespread showers may be heavy and persistent at times
with the possibility of thunderstorms Tuesday through the weekend.
Widespread flash flooding may occur from this rainfall.
Landslides will be possible along steep mountainous terrain.
While there is still uncertainty in the exact magnitude and
duration of rainfall, plan now for wet conditions next Tuesday
through Sunday.

Keep up to date with the latest forecast information through our
internet page (www.weather.gov/ppg), local media, social media,
and our NOAA Radio broadcasts.
