ESFMFR Two rounds of moderate to heavy rain will impact the region this week. The first arrives tonight into early Wednesday, bringing 1 to 2 inches of rain across Douglas, Coos, Curry and Josephine counties, with up to 3 inches in the coastal mountains of Curry County. An atmospheric river arrives early Thursday and persists through Friday afternoon, bringing another round of moderate to heavy rain. Rainfall amounts of 3 to 6 inches are expected, with the highest amounts likely in Curry County. Small streams and creeks are likely to run high and could result in nuisance flooding along with ponding of water on roadways during periods of heavy rain. Significant rises on mainstem rivers are expected, but the overall concern for widespread river flooding is low at this time due to antecedent dry conditions and minimal snowpack. We will be monitoring rivers in the Coquille and Umpqua Basins for flooding potential. The exact scenario for flooding remains uncertain. This product will be updated as necessary. Watches and warnings may be issued by the National Weather Service if this situation worsens.
