Hydrologic Outlook issued September 19 at 11:59AM MDT by NWS Riverton WY
ESFRIW Periods of showers and thunderstorms are expected across the northern half of Wyoming Saturday and Sunday as a wet weather system shifts east across the state. This weather system is funneling abundant tropical moisture into northern and eastern portions of the state with it's eastward progression. Given the high moisture content, many thunderstorms could feature heavy rainfall and possibly lead to localized flooding. Poor drainage areas, urban areas, and steep terrain will be the most susceptible locations for this isolated flooding. Many locations could see an additional 0.5" to 1.25" of rain through Sunday afternoon, with a majority of this rain falling quickly in thunderstorms. Remember, if you encounter a flooded roadway, turn around don't down!
About
Pete's Draw Campground sits along the North Platte River near Alcova in Natrona County, managed by the BLM Casper Field Office. The campground features seven overnight sites arranged separately from a day-use area, with each site equipped with a picnic table, fire ring, shelter structure, and tent pad. RV parking is available though the sites are primitive with no hookups. Facilities include a vault toilet, trash receptacles, and a hardened pedestrian trail connecting to the day-use area. No potable water is available, so campers must bring their own supply. The site receives heavy visitation during spring and early summer months due to excellent fishing and boating access on the North Platte River. Camping is $10 per night with a 14-day stay limit. All sites are first-come, first-served with no advance reservations. The day-use area is free but overnight parking there is prohibited.
Directions
From Alcova, go east 0.6 miles on Highway 220 to County Road 412 and turn right. Travel for two miles and take a right, then continue for 0.1 miles to the campground.
