The outlook calls for possible minor snowmelt flooding during this Spring snowmelt season.
Minor flooding means minimal or no property damage, but possibly some public inconvenience.
Outlooks are routinely issued in February and March to give advance notice of possible flooding. They are based on soil moisture, snowpack magnitude and streamflow at the time the outlook is issued. Outlooks are also based on normal future temperature and precipitation. Precipitation has been above normal the first half of February. The 6 to 10 day outlook indicates normal temperatures and above normal precipitation for Southeast Lower Michigan.
