Overall limited impacts expected; however, The Big Hole River near Melrose experiences a little more upstream water flowing into it. Water levels rise above minor flood stage, and are expected to crest the evening of Friday June 19th, near 6.5 ft,
before slowly receding below flood stage late Sunday evening. As a result, the Flood Warning for the Big Hole River near Melrose remains in affect through Sunday night, and anyone near this areas should stay away from flooded roads and monitor any property near the river.
