...The National Weather Service in Elko has issued a Flood Warning 
for the following rivers in Nevada... 

  Humboldt River At Comus affecting Humboldt County
For the Lower Humboldt, including Comus, high flows are occurring,
with minor flooding forecast.

...High flows are already occurring due to excessive runoff from rivers
and streams in northern Humboldt County. The King, Quinn, and Little
Humboldt Rivers are flowing very strong and will empty into the Humboldt
River. The flood waters from eastern Nevada are moving slowly down the 
Humboldt River and are expected to reach Comus and the Winnemucca area 
on Tuesday Morning. Please Stay away from the river as bank failures can
occur and you could be swept away...

FLOOD WARNING
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE ELKO NV
405 AM PST MON FEB 13 2017

  Humboldt River At Comus affecting Humboldt County
For the Lower Humboldt, including Comus, Major flooding is expected
to occur. Minor flooding is expected to start Tuesday. 

There is a great deal of uncertainty about river stages and times. 
A series of flood waves upstream as far as Halleck is making forecasting
difficult. More inflow from flooded rivers and stream in Humboldt County
is also difficult to estimate since most of the water is flowing between
gages or in areas with no gages at all. 

The best course of action is to assume major flooding will occur, since 
it has been occurring upstream at other places, and take action now to 
protect life and property.

The National Weather Service in Elko is working closely with law enforcement
and decision makers in Humboldt County. 

There is an almost certain chance for moderate flooding, a very good chance for
major flooding, and a slight chance of near record flooding.

FLOOD STATEMENT
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE ELKO NV
124 AM PST WED FEB 15 2017

For the Lower Humboldt, including Palisade...Battle Mountain...
Comus, Moderate flooding is occurring, with Major flooding forecast.

 ...Flooding continues on portions of the Lower Humboldt River...

The surge or cresting of flood water on the Upper Humboldt River has
worked its way down stream, and westward, from the Elko and Carlin 
gauge sites, into the Lower Humboldt River. 

The Humboldt River at Palisade crested at 9.92 feet at 3:30am Monday
morning, and has been moderating lower ever since, with the passing 
of the flood surge. The flood surge is currently between Palisade 
and Battle Mountain. 

The Humboldt River at Battle Mountain has gradually risen up into 
moderate flood stage. The current forecast calls for continued 
moderate flooding, however with the flood surge yet to arrive at 
Battle Mountain, the river stage may reach the major flood level of 
11.5 feet in the next couple days, with the potential to rise toward
12 feet. There is currently still quite a bit of uncertainty with 
the crest stage, date and time. 

The Humboldt River at Comus is currently about 2 feet below the 
minor flood stage of 9.5 feet, and continuing to rise. With the 
flood surge well upstream of Comus at this time, the flood surge, 
or crest for this event is likely at least a few days out, 
possibly not arriving until late this weekend or early next week. 
However, minor flooding is expected to begin this evening. Once 
the Humboldt River crests at Battle Mountain, there should be 
more confidence in the timing and expected crest height at Comus, 
which will likely be in the major flood category with cresting 
at or above 11.5 feet.

...The Humboldt River at Comus is currently below flood stage. It is
forecast to reach minor flood stage around or shortly after 12 AM 
Friday morning, rising up to moderate flood stage late Saturday 
morning... 

The flood surge that impacted the upper reaches of the Humboldt 
River earlier this week with moderate to major flooding has made 
its way down stream into the Lower Humboldt River, and is currently 
at or just upstream of Battle Mountain. This flood surge is 
forecast to raise the Humboldt at Comus into minor flood stage early
Friday morning, and into moderate flood stage late Saturday morning. 
The current forecast is for moderate flooding to continue through 
at least midnight Monday morning before waters begin to recede. 

There is a great deal of uncertainty in the timing and height of the 
flood surge for Comus, especially with the current crest so far up 
stream. As such, significant changes to the forecast are possible 
before the flood surge reaches Comus. We encourage anyone concerned 
with the flood surge to check often for updates as new data allows 
for more accurate forecasts the closer we get to the flood surge 
reaching Comus.

...Moderate flooding continues on portions of the Lower Humboldt 
River...

The flood surge that originated on the Upper Humboldt River last 
weekend has made its way downstream into the Lower Humboldt River. 
Thursday morning the crest of the flood surge passed by the river 
gauge in Battle Mountain, with a height very near the major flood 
level of 11.5 feet. The exact crest height is unknown due to gauge 
malfunctioning. River gauge observations in Battle Mountain resumed 
at 10:15 Thursday morning, with a stage of 11.5 feet, and have 
slowly subsided since that time. 

At midnight Friday morning the Battle Mountain gauge was reading 
11.3 feet, which is near the top of the moderate flood range. The 
forecast for the Humboldt River at Battle Mountain has the river 
remaining in moderate flood stage through 9AM Sunday morning, after 
which time the river is expected to drop below 10.5 feet and into 
minor flood stage. Minor flooding is expected to continue through 
at least the middle of next week, before receding below 9.5 feet. 

Over the coming days the flood surge will continue to move westward 
downstream, toward Golconda, then to the Comus gauge site, and 
finally to Winnemucca. 

The Humboldt River at Comus has steadily been rising by roughly a 
half a foot a day for the past three days. As the still upstream 
flood crest gets closer to the Comus gauge, the river is expected to 
rise a little quicker. As such, the Humboldt River at Comus is 
forecast to reach 9.5 feet (minor flood stage) later this afternoon 
or evening. The current forecast has the Comus stage cresting Sunday 
morning at 10.4 feet, which would be just shy of 10.5 feet and the 
lower range of moderate flood stage. The flood stage at Comus is 
expected to remain near 10.4 feet through at least Tuesday before 
the flood surge moves downstream of the Comus gauge and the river 
level slowly subsides.  

As for Winnemucca, the window for minor flooding to begin is between 
10AM Tuesday and 12AM Wednesday. The flood crest at Winnemucca is 
now forecast to arrive around 6AM Thursday, with a height of 19.6 
feet.

953 AM PST FRI FEB 17 2017

For the Lower Humboldt, including from Battle Mountain to Comus, and 
downstream to Winnemucca...moderate flooding is occurring and is expected 
to continue.

Water diversions have successfully removed some water from the main channel
and lowered the flood wave along the Humboldt River. 

The flood wave is also moving into flat terrain and slowing down. Forecasts
of crests are an estimate. Be prepared for flooding.

For Battle Mountain...the river is still in moderate flood stage but is
dropping slowly.

For Comus...the river is expected to reach flood stage Friday evening...reach 
moderate flood stage and crest early Monday...then drop slowly through mid week.

For Golconda...the river is expected to flood around Sunday morning...reach
moderate flood and crest late Tuesday...and continue in flood until at least
mid week.

For Winnemucca...the river is expected to reach flood stage late Monday...reach
moderate flood stage and crest around Thursday...and remain flood until at least 
late week. 

The flood wave will remain in Humboldt County for several days after that.

FLOOD STATEMENT

122 PM PST SAT FEB 18 2017

For the Lower Humboldt, including Battle Mountain...Comus, Moderate 
flooding is occurring and is expected to continue.

The Humboldt River has crested at Battle Mountain and the flood wave is 
now pushing water up at Comus. Winnemucca will start to see the water 
rise Saturday afternoon and continue well into mid week. 

The forecast for Battle Mountain has moderate to high confidence.

The forecast for Comus has low to moderate confidence since the water is
rising faster than previous predicted. 

The forecast timing for Winnemucca is for minor flooding to start Monday
evening....near moderate flooding to begin as soon as Wednesday...and the
crest to occur Thursday. Forecast confidence is low on this timing
because of the current changes in flood wave behavior...so we will keep
watching the data closely and continue coordinating with Humboldt County
authorities. 

This is slow moving flood and diversions are ongoing. They will continue
until no longer effective. This is the time to prepare for the flood by 
moving property from flood prone areas and developing alternate routes in
case roads are closed.

Never, ever drive into flooded or closed roads. The muddy water may hide
the giant hole where the road used to be. Turn around. Don't drown. 

Stay tuned to NOAA weather radio or weather.gov/elko for official information
and warnings. For ample unofficial information, look at our social media

Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Elko NV
247 AM PST Fri Feb 10 2017

.SYNOPSIS...Valley rain and high elevation snow today. Snow levels
lower overnight with some light snow possible in valley areas
Saturday morning before the system exits to the southeast. Showers
end on Saturday with dry conditions the rest of the weekend on
through next Wednesday.

&&

.SHORT TERM...Today through Sunday. Rain shower activity has
moved in over northwestern Nevada, which will expand to the
southeast later today bringing a tenth to a quarter of an inch of
QPF to northern NV areas. Most central NV areas can expect two
tenths up to a half inch of QPF before the system exits to the
southeast later Saturday. The bulk of the valley precipitation
will fall as rain, however cooler air is moving in on the back
edge of this system, which will result in a change over to snow or
a rain snow mix later tonight into Saturday morning. Most valley
locations will not see any snow accumulations, the exception will
be areas above roughly 7000 feet in elevation where a half inch of
snow may fall late tonight into Saturday morning.

Winds will be lighter today, though still gusty at times as 130kt
jet passes over the CWA. The incoming trough energy will also
kick off a cooling trend that will last through Saturday night.
Trough energy will have passed off to the southeast by Sunday
morning, at which time weak ridging will build in from the west
to kick off another warming trend.

.LONG TERM...Sunday night through next Friday. Blocking ridge
overhead results in dry conditions with a slight warming trend
through Tuesday night or possibly Wednesday. Broad area of low
pressure off the coast of the Pacific NW and Canada, with some
energy pushing southeast into the Great Basin beginning on
Wednesday to begin breaking down the ridge over NV. Models are in
decent agreement in spreading rain into NW NV late Wednesday into
early Thursday. However the ECMWF model is quicker to expand the
trough energy and associated precipitation east across NV later
next week.

&&

.AVIATION...Gusty winds on Thursday stirred up dust over portions
of northern and central NV creating hazy conditions. Haze may
linger into this morning however rain should scour out most of the
suspended particulates by the mid to late morning hours. Light to
moderate shower activity will past northwest to southeast across
NV today through Saturday morning. Precipitation today will be
rain, however later tonight into Saturday morning many areas will
see rain change to snow before the system exits to the southeast.
Main terminal impacts would be KELY due to reduced sigs and vis in
light snow.

&&

.HYDROLOGY...Cooler though still above normal temperatures today
as a relatively weak storm system passes from northwest to
southeast across NV. Snow levels will be high today with northern
NV seeing an additional tenth to a quarter inch of rain through
Saturday morning. This combination of melting snowpack and light
to moderate rain will continue the flooding over much of northern
NV. Many rivers and creeks are flooding at this time with flood
warnings in effect. Cooler temperatures and dry conditions later
this weekend and into early next week will help greatly reduce
runoff into rivers and creeks, allowing water levels to lower.

&&

.LKN WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES...None.

Special Weather Statement
National Weather Service Elko NV
731 AM PST Fri Feb 10 2017

NVZ031-110345-
Northern Elko County-
Including the cities of Jackpot, Wildhorse, and Owyhee
731 AM PST Fri Feb 10 2017

...SPECIAL WEATHER STATEMENT...

The Owyhee River near Mountain City has been rising steadily for
two days. There have been reports of ice chunks in the river, and
water over Mountain City Highway or State Route 225 in places.

The river gage suddenly showed nearly zero flow. This could be due
to mud in the pipe, or it could be because there is a debris or
ice jam on the river. If this is the case, there could be a sudden
release of water downstream and a large flood affecting traffic or
property.

Be very careful on Mountain City Highway, especially through the
canyons. Never drive into water. Turn around. Don't drown.
