146 WGUS83 KFGF 291726 FLSFGF Flood Statement National Weather Service Eastern North Dakota/Grand Forks ND 1226 PM CDT WED MAR 29 2017 ...The flood warning has been extended for these river locations in Minnesota...North Dakota... * Drayton...on the Red River...in Marshall...Walsh...Kittson and Pembina Counties * Grafton...on the Park River...in Walsh County * Walhalla...on the Pembina River...in Pembina and Cavalier Counties * Neche...on the Pembina River...in Pembina County ...The flood warning continues for these river locations in Minnesota...North Dakota... * Oslo...on the Red River ...in Marshall...Walsh...Polk and Grand Forks Counties * Pembina...on the Red River ...in Kittson and Pembina Counties * Upstream of Warren...on the Snake River ...in Marshall County * Hallock...on the Two Rivers River ...in Kittson County . Main challenge for this update is the Park River and the area around Grafton. This morning the pool at Homme Dam has leveled off around 1801 ft. This seems to be the crest and not just a slowing down of the melt runoff with cooling temperatures overnight. Based on the response at Homme Dam, it appears that there were significant losses in the basin. However, the crest range at this time is forecast to be around 13.5 to 15 feet. For Pembina, the forecast is based on current trends in river stage and the results of hydrologic and hydraulic routing models. At this time, the forecast crest range is 43 to 45 feet. This forecast is for a 7-day period...the highest stage indicated may not reflect the crest for this event. Forecasts are updated daily and stage values will change as new weather and river information is used. River forecasts use 24 hours of forecast precipitation between April 1st and October 1st, and 48 hours otherwise. However, depending on the situation, they may include precipitation expected through the next 72 hours. PRECAUTIONARY/PREPAREDNESS ACTIONS... Safety message...turn around, don't drown... - Don't travel through flooded areas! - Persons in the warned area need to take steps to protect life and property. If necessary, move to a higher and safer location. - Persons living in the Red River Basin should monitor river levels while the river is in, or near, flood.

Flood warnings continue for area rivers north of Highway 2 as warm weather and above freezing overnight temperatures allow runoff to enter the river systems. At Oslo, the river remains just above flood stage and appears to be near crest at this time. For Drayton, the river rises have slowed down but is still forecast to rise to around 34 to 35 feet before beginning a slow fall. At Pembina, the river stage continues to steadily increase and is forecast to reach moderate flood stage. The forecast is to crest in the 45 to 47 foot range due to flows entering in from the Pembina River. Once the river crests, it is anticipated the stage will remain fairly steady for several days thereafter. This forecast is for a 7-day period...the highest stage indicated may not reflect the crest for this event. Forecasts are updated daily and stage values will change as new weather and river information is used. River forecasts use 24 hours of forecast precipitation between April 1st and October 1st, and 48 hours otherwise. However, depending on the situation, they may include precipitation expected through the next 72 hours. PRECAUTIONARY/PREPAREDNESS ACTIONS... Safety message...turn around, don't drown... - Don't travel through flooded areas! - Persons in the warned area need to take steps to protect life and property.

Area forecast discussion, Mar 29, 9:29 AM CDT, 2 hours 32 minutes before
Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service Grand Forks ND 929 AM CDT Wed Mar 29 2017 .UPDATE... Issued at 927 AM CDT Wed Mar 29 2017 Fog does not look to be a threat any more with vsby good at all sites so pulled fog mention. Light showers have yet to move into the far nw so delayed any pops there. Temperatures ok. UPDATE Issued at 700 AM CDT Wed Mar 29 2017 No changes needed early this morning as fog has behaved itself, or even improved a bit the last few hours. Temperatures did drop a degree or two more than expected towards sunrise in some areas but still expecting a decent push of warm advection throughout the day to help things rebound nicely. && .SHORT TERM...(Today and tonight) Issued at 351 AM CDT Wed Mar 29 2017 Fog has been much less of an issue tonight than the last few nights due to cloud cover and at least a little bit of wind. However, some sites in the recent snow melt areas (mainly across the Devils Lake basin and extreme northern Red River Valley) have seen visibilities drop a bit in the last hour or two. Therefore, did go ahead and throw in some patchy fog mention into the forecast for these areas in case visibilities dip even a bit lower towards morning. HRRR low level RH profiles have a decent handle on the current conditions and show things improving by mid to late morning. Following any fog headaches, the next issue for the day will be the possibility of any precipitation chances. With a split flow pattern continuing across the CONUS, a deep upper low is expected to propagate across the southern portion of the country while a shortwave is progged to pass through the northern stream and across the Northern Plains. Water vapor imagery depicts this wave currently located across western North Dakota with hi-res models moving this wave east/northeast into the northwestern forecast area and skirting along the international border. Therefore, the best forcing with this wave (although pretty weak) looks to bring precipitation chances into the far western Devils Lake basin by this afternoon and gradually shift them east/northeast towards the far northern valley. Not expecting much impact-wise, or even for accumulation, as temperatures will be well above freezing. As for highs today, did bump them up a few degrees from the previous forecast due to quite an increase in 925/850 mb warm advection as compared to Tuesday. Expect conditions to finally warm into the 50s in the more snow affected areas across the far northwest while hitting the 60 mark appears very possible for many locations elsewhere. Another mild night tonight with readings remaining in the mid to upper 30s as modest southerly flow remains in place. Winds should also keep any fog at bay. .LONG TERM...(Thursday through Tuesday) Issued at 351 AM CDT Wed Mar 29 2017 Brief upper ridging will build in Thursday keeping any precipitation chances out of the area. It should be a bit cooler than Wednesday, although still well above average, as low level warm advection backs off a bit. By Friday, another upper wave and associated weak cold front look to sweep through the forecast area as the upper ridge weakens. Another chance for precipitation will move from west to east with this feature Friday and into early Saturday, but once again, impacts should be fairly minimal with any precipitation being relatively light and mostly rain (except for maybe a few hours of some snow mixed in late Friday night/early Saturday morning). Overall the Saturday through Tuesday period looks to remain mild with no big weather systems. The 500 mb pattern shows one stronger low tracking across the southern plains Saturday through Monday, followed by another on Tuesday. This will keep the majority of the pcpn well south of the FA, with anything up in the northern plains being minimal. The highest guidance pcpn chances arrive on Tuesday, but models are quite divergent in solutions then, so confidence in much of anything remains low. Temperatures look to stay well above normal with highs generally ranging in the 50s. The melt will continue at night too, with low temperatures mainly staying above freezing. At this point, Sunday looks like the mildest day, with models showing steady SSW to SW winds and the warmest 850mb temps. && .AVIATION...(For the 12Z TAFS through 12Z Thursday morning) Issued at 700 AM CDT Wed Mar 29 2017 VFR throughout the period for the most part. The only exception is KDVL which is seeing some on and off IFR conditions in fog this morning. Therefore, continued with a TEMPO group to account for this through most of the morning before dissipating. Other than that, some high clouds will persist across the area but no impactful ceilings expected. Winds will gradually turn more to the south/southeast throughout the day and increase to 10-15 kts. && .HYDROLOGY... Issued at 351 AM CDT Wed Mar 29 2017 Many of the hydrographs continue to show a diurnal trend, or rising during the day hours with a slow down at night. This is due to the temperatures rising nicely during the day, but falling below freezing again at night. Low temperatures tonight through late week look to remain above freezing at night, so this may not continue. Otherwise the snow melt continues for areas that still have snow. Received one field report Tuesday evening from Cando, where it was reported that 75 percent of the area was open with 25 percent still snow covered. Most of the remaining snow was contained in drifts or sheltered areas. Speaking of some of the specific river flood points, the forecast at Grafton is still calling for a crest of 14.5 to 16 feet (4700-6200 cfs) around April 1. The Red River continues to rise north of Grand Forks, with Pembina expected to reach 43 to 45 feet around April 3. Hallock also remains in minor flood stage and is expected to remain fairly steady through the rest of the week. Melting continues across the Pembina River basin, with both Walhalla and Neche already approaching action stage. Forecasts from Tuesday noted that the melt rates in this area were progressing faster than expected. These forecasts currently show Walhalla reaching minor flood stage and Neche rising into moderate flood stage, both by late this week into the upcoming weekend. && .FGF WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES...
