Hydrologic Outlook issued October 8 at 1:47PM MDT by NWS Riverton WY
ESFRIW The interaction between increasing tropical moisture and an approaching midlevel area of low pressure will bring widespread rain showers across a large portion of western Wyoming starting late Saturday night. Given the high moisture content, some areas could feature locally 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 across western Wyoming could see 1 to 2 inches of rainfall through Tuesday morning. Remember, if you encounter a flooded roadway, Turn Around, Don't Drown!
About
Slate Creek Campground is a free primitive camping area managed by the BLM Kemmerer Field Office in partnership with the Bureau of Reclamation. Located on the west side of the Green River approximately four miles south of Fontenelle Reservoir, this quiet site provides a launching point for outdoor recreation in southwestern Wyoming. The area is renowned for birdwatching, situated just north of Seedskadee National Wildlife Refuge, which hosts diverse waterfowl and migratory species along the Green River corridor. Anglers will find good fishing access to the Green River directly from the campground. The site also contains historic resources that visitors are asked to leave undisturbed. Facilities are basic: designated camping sites, two ADA-accessible vault toilets, and picnic areas. There is no potable water, so campers must bring their own supply. The campground is free and operates on a first-come, first-served basis with no reservations accepted.
