Hydrologic Outlook issued October 8 at 1:46PM PDT by NWS Elko NV

1:46 PM — October 9th, 5:30 AM

ESFLKN A low pressure system over the Pacific Northwest will drop southward into Northern California Sunday. This storm system will draw abundant atmospheric moisture associated with Tropical Storm Rachel northward into Eastern Nevada, resulting in the likelihood of rain Sunday and Sunday night. Slow storm motions and/or training cells may produce heavy rainfall and localized flooding. Of particular concern are recent, large burn scars, including the Ward fire south of Ely and the Oxley fire north of Wells. Numerous smaller burn scare from this fire season also remain vulnerable to flash flooding and debris flow. Residents near burn scars should have multiple ways to receive Flash Flood Warning and be prepared to act quickly. Travelers and recreationists should also remain alert and consider alternate plans.

About

Kalamazoo Campground is a remote, primitive campground tucked along Kalamazoo Creek on the eastern slopes of the Schell Creek Range in the Humboldt-Toiyabe National Forest. The campground offers four sites, each equipped with a picnic table, campfire ring, and BBQ pedestal. Vault toilets are provided, but campers must bring their own drinking water as none is available on site. The area provides access to stream fishing in Kalamazoo Creek, mountain biking, day hiking, horseback riding, and off-highway vehicle trails. The campground sits at approximately 7,500 feet elevation and is accessed via a mix of paved and unpaved forest roads. Dogs are permitted but must be kept on leash; horses and pack animals are not allowed in the campground itself.
