* WHEN...Until 900 PM CDT Wednesday.

* IMPACTS...Flooding of rivers, creeks, streams, and other low-lying

* ADDITIONAL DETAILS...
- At 110 PM CDT, Doppler radar and automated rain gauges indicated
that a narrow stripe of 2-4 inches of heavy rain fell from early
morning thunderstorms...mainly stretching from the southwest
corner of Jewell County up to around Mankato...with additional
lighter rain falling since then. Jewell County Emergency
Management reported that several unpaved rural roads had been or
are still closed in this area due to flooding, washed-out
shoulders and standing water. Although water levels have subsided
somewhat since this morning, additional moderate to heavy rain...
potentially as much as 2 to 4 inches...is likely this afternoon
into tonight. Should this additional heavy rain materialize, this
could cause renewed flooding issues, and perhaps the possibility
of more urgent flash flooding concerns.
- This includes the following streams and drainages...
Limestone Creek, West Marsh Creek, Spring Creek, West Limestone
Creek, Porcupine Creek, Middle Limestone Creek, Browns Creek,
East Fork Big Timber Creek, West Buffalo Creek, Middle Buffalo
Creek, Elm Creek, Johns Creek, Little Oak Creek, East Marsh
Creek, Ash Creek, Buffalo Creek, Dry Creek, Granite Creek, Oak
Creek, East Buffalo Creek.
- Some locations that could experience flooding include...
Mankato, Jewell, Ionia and Montrose, but mainly rural areas
outside of these towns.
