THE LATEST RIVER LEVEL FORECASTS HAVE NO SIGNIFICANT CHANGES COMPARED TO THE PREVIOUS FORECAST. WARM TEMPERATURES WILL CONTINUE TO MELT ANY REMAINING SNOW AND ALLOW LOCAL RUNOFF TO MAKE ITS WAY INTO THE RIVER SYSTEMS ACROSS NORTHWESTERN AND WEST CENTRAL MINNESOTA. PERIODIC RAIN SHOWERS ARE POSSIBLE THROUGH SATURDAY...BUT THE SMALL AMOUNTS OF RAINFALL ARE NOT EXPECTED TO SIGNIFICANTLY IMPACT THE RIVER FORECASTS FOR THE MINNESOTA TRIBUTARIES TO THE RED RIVER. HOWEVER...THERE IS STILL SOME CONCERN FOR A LIKELY STORM SYSTEM THAT WILL DEVELOP THIS WEEKEND AND COULD AFFECT WEST CENTRAL AND NORTHWESTERN MINNESOTA. A LOW PRESSURE SYSTEM WILL LIKELY DEVELOP SATURDAY IN THE CENTRAL PLAINS...AND AS IT MAKES ITS WAY INTO THE UPPER MIDWEST...IT COULD BRING SIGNIFICANT RAIN TO WEST CENTRAL AND NORTHWESTERN MINNESOTA. THERE IS STILL UNCERTAINTY AS TO WHERE THE RAIN WILL FALL...AS WELL AS HOW MUCH. AT THIS TIME...WEST CENTRAL MINNESOTA HAS A GREATER RISK THAN FAR NORTHWESTERN MINNESOTA OF GETTING SIGNIFICANT RAINFALL. THE NWS WILL KEEP A CLOSE EYE ON THIS POTENTIAL RAINFALL...AND TO THE DEGREE IT WILL AFFECT THE RIVER FORECASTS. ICING REMAINS A PROBLEM FOR AT LEAST THE RED LAKE RIVER AT CROOKSTON. THERE HAVE BEEN REPORTS OF ICE UPSTREAM OF THE CROOKSTON GAGE...AND THAT ICE STILL NEEDS TO MOVE THROUGH THE AREA.
