Weather Service warns of flooding

By Howard B. Owens

Heavy snow melt and rain could lead to minor flooding in parts of Genesee County, according to the National Weather Service.

There is a flood watch in effect for late tonight through Monday evening.

Minor flooding is possible along creeks and rivers as well as low-lying, poorly drained areas.

Thunderstorms may produce localized heavier rainfall and pose a risk for more significant flooding in those areas, according to the NWS.

Though rainfall will cease around midday Monday, some streams will not crest until Monday night or predawn Tuesday.
