Hydrologic Outlook issued September 18 at 10:20AM MDT by NWS Riverton WY
ESFRIW A wet weather system will support periods of showers and thunderstorms across Wyoming Friday, Saturday, and Sunday. This weather system is funneling abundant tropical moisture into the state. Given this anomalously high moisture, many thunderstorms will feature heavy rainfall, possibly leading 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 rainfall totals anywhere between 0.75" to 1.75" 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

Managed by the BLM Lander Field Office, this 18-site campground provides a convenient base for exploring the surrounding sagebrush country and historic mining districts. The campground can accommodate large recreational vehicles and offers ADA-accessible facilities. Amenities include vault toilets, fire rings at each site, picnic tables, garbage collection, and potable water when weather permits. The campground operates on a first-come, first-served basis with no advance reservations. Sites cost $20 per night, or $10 with a Senior Annual Pass, Senior Lifetime Pass, or Access Pass. Visitors should be bear aware, as this is bear country. The area offers access to historic Atlantic City, nearby trails, and the Continental Divide. A camp host is occasionally on site during the operating season.
