Short term forecast number 3

The NWS has issued a FLOOD  ADVISORY for Polk and St. Croix Counties....

 Heavy rainfall is expected in Polk and St. Croix Counties as showers and thunderstorms keep training over the same areas...This will lead to flooding of low lying areas along with street flooding...If there is water on the roadway do not try to drive through as you never know if the the road has been washed away. Also with the flooding problems some hail and gusty winds will still be possible with the stronger thunderstorms...


Also one should be on the alert for possible funnel clouds as the upper levels do support this with very cold temps aloft...And funnels clouds that do form should remain aloft however there is a chance that there may be a brief touch down.....
