Urban Areas and Small Streams in Kitsap Now Under a “Flood Warning”
January 7th, 2009 by Matthew LeachWell isn’t this just dandy!
First we get the “once in every 30 year” snowstorm in December (actually, I rather enjoyed that, but for the sake of where this post is going, let’s pretend I didn’t…:)) and now we have to deal with flooding. This a messy and frustrating situation for many and the current radar is rather…pessimistic… (I’ve been trying to download the latest radar image but it’s not working for me, so go to this link:
http://radar.weather.gov/radar.php?rid=atx&product=N0R&overlay=11101111&loop=no
Here is what the FLOOD WARNING has to say:
THE NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE IN SEATTLE HAS ISSUED A * FLOOD WARNING FOR URBAN AREAS AND SMALL STREAMS IN THE FOLLOWING WESTERN WASHINGTON COUNTIES... KITSAP COUNTY... WESTERN KING COUNTY... SOUTHWESTERN SNOHOMISH COUNTY... * UNTIL 830 AM PST THURSDAY. * AT 834 PM PST RADAR AND OBSERVATIONS SHOW PRECIPITATION FALLING AT NEARLY ONE HALF INCH PER HOUR. HEAVY RAIN WILL CONTINUE THROUGH ABOUT 4 AM EARLY THURSDAY BEFORE DECREASING TO SHOWERS. FLOODING IS EXPECTED IN NORMALLY LOW AND FLOOD PRONE AREAS...POORLY DRAINED UNDERPASSES...AND ALONG SMALL STREAMS. A FLOOD WARNING MEANS THAT FLOODING IS IMMINENT OR HAS BEEN REPORTED. PRECAUTIONARY/PREPAREDNESS ACTIONS... EXCESSIVE RUNOFF FROM HEAVY RAINFALL WILL CAUSE ELEVATED LEVELS ON SMALL CREEKS AND STREAMS...AND PONDING OF WATER IN URBAN AREAS... HIGHWAYS...STREETS AND UNDERPASSES AS WELL AS OTHER POOR DRAINAGE AREAS AND LOW LYING SPOTS.
This is certainly not looking like a widespread devastating event…in fact, this will be more of a nuisance. Nonetheless, stay safe out there!
