...Flood Potential Outlook for significant rises on rivers, creeks
and streams and possible main stem river flooding due to multiple
periods of moderate to heavy rain in the following counties: In
California, Siskiyou...and in Oregon, Coos, Curry, Douglas, Jackson,
and Josephine...

A series of wet frontal systems will produce periods of moderate to
heavy precipitation through this weekend. Significant rises
are expected late this week, but especially Saturday night into
early next week. Forecast precipitation totals from Wednesday
through Sunday could reach 2 to 5 inches over the west side valleys,
with 5 to 10 inches possible in the mountains and along the coast.
More than a foot of rain could fall in the Curry coastal ranges.
This rainfall will increase the risk for both flash flooding,
especially over area burn
scars, as well as small stream and river flooding.

The Rogue River near Agness is forecast to reach Action flood stage
Saturday night and rise to Minor flood stage Sunday morning. The
Coquille River at Coquille is forecast to reach Minor Flood Stage
Sunday morning and Moderate Flood Stage by Sunday afternoon.

A flood potential outlook is issued when there is the potential for
significant rises or flooding along rivers and streams. 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.
