 Areal Flood Watch 
Statement as of 9:27 PM MDT on May 16, 2008


... Flood Watch remains in effect through Sunday afternoon...

The Flood Watch continues for

* portions of central Montana... north central Montana and
southwest Montana... including the following areas... in central
Montana... Cascade and Judith Basin. In north central Montana...
northern Rocky Mountain front and southern Rocky Mountain
front. In southwest Montana... Beaverhead... Broadwater...
central and southern Lewis And Clark... Gallatin... Jefferson...
Madison and Meagher.

* Through Sunday afternoon

* near record high temperatures today through Sunday will cause
rapid snow melt in the mountains. In addition... temperatures
will remain above freezing at night so runoff will continue
through the overnight hours. Small streams and tributaries may
exceed their banks resulting in minor flooding.


A Flood Watch means there is a potential for flooding based on
current forecasts.

You should monitor later forecasts and be alert for possible
flood warnings. Those living in areas prone to flooding should be
prepared to take action should flooding develop.
