Rainfall, combined with melting snow, will continue. The frozen ground has a reduced ability to absorb this rainfall.

Locations: Corner Brook to Gros Morne.

Total rainfall: 20 to 40 mm, with higher amounts likely over the higher terrain of the Long Range Mountains.

Time span: until near midnight tonight.

Remarks: Rain, mild temperatures, and strong winds will lead to rapid snowmelt, even in the higher elevations. This will result in rapidly rising water levels in streams, creating an increased risk of localized flooding, especially in lower lying areas and areas with poor drainage.

###

Water will likely pool on roads and in low-lying areas.

Rainfall warnings are issued when significant impacts are expected due to rainfall amounts.
