Here is the latest from the National Weather Service office in Duluth.
Hello Rainy River Basin Partners,
Water levels have crested across much of the Rainy River Basin over the last week and a half. We are sending this email as a final update on the latest conditions. There is no attached .pdf briefing this time.
Water levels have crested on Namakan, Kabetogama and Crane Lakes and Lac La Croix.
The ongoing Flood Advisory remains in effect until Tuesday late afternoon, but observations over the last few days have shown a trend for continued decreasing flows in rivers and lowering lake levels.
The forecast for the next week is for very little additional widespread rainfall, beyond highly localized moderate rain showers and thunderstorms (20% chance) late this upcoming weekend and into early next week.
Boaters should continue to be aware of underwater hazards (including submerged docks) and strong currents in constricted areas even as water levels slowly decrease.
Now available! National Water Prediction Service – NWPS now contains even more Rainy River Basin river level observations – new as of the last two weeks!
Self-briefing with up to date information – Our webpage at weather.gov/dlh/RainyRiverBasin is live with recently updated information and additional hydrographs.
Questions, comments or inquiries? Please don’t hesitate to contact our office by email at nws.duluth@noaa.gov or by phone at 218.729.0653.
No future emails or briefings are scheduled at this time, but will be issued as necessary.
Best,
The Hydro Team at NWS Duluth
