* WHAT...Flash flooding caused by excessive rainfall is possible.
* WHERE...Yavapai, western Coconino, northern Gila, and far southern
Navajo counties.
* WHEN...From Saturday morning through late Sunday night.
* IMPACTS...Flash flooding will be possible in creeks, normally dry
washes, swimming holes, and over recently burned areas. Low-water
crossings may be flooded.
* ADDITIONAL DETAILS...
- A upper-level trough will help pull moisture from the remnants of
Tropical Storm Rachel up into western Arizona to produce showers
and thunderstorms Saturday, followed by extended periods of
rainfall through at least Sunday. Thunderstorms will have the
potential to produce heavy rainfall that could lead to flash
flooding, while extended periods of rain can lead to elevated
streams, rivers, and flow through washes. Greatest risk of heavy
rainfall looks be along higher terrain due to upsloping.

Moisture associated with the remnants of Tropical Storm Rachel will
impact Utah this weekend bringing widespread rainfall totals ranging
from 2-4". Some highly localized amounts to 6-8" are also possible,
particularly across terrain-favored locations in southwestern Utah,
the Book Cliffs, and Bear River Range.
* WHAT...Flash flooding caused by excessive rainfall is possible.
* WHERE...A portion of Utah, including the following areas, Castle
Country, Central Mountains, Eastern Juab/Millard Counties, San

* WHEN...From Saturday afternoon through Monday afternoon.
* IMPACTS...Excessive runoff may result in flooding of rivers,
creeks, streams, dry washes, slot canyons, and other low-lying and
flood-prone locations such as slickrock areas and recent burn
scars. Creeks and streams may rise out of their banks. Flooding may
occur in poor drainage and urban areas.
* ADDITIONAL DETAILS...
- Anomalously high moisture is forecast to impact the region with
the arrival of the remnants of Tropical Storm Rachel. While this
is expected to be a long duration rainfall event, scattered
instances of heavier rainfall rates are expected with stronger
storms yielding flash flooding concerns given saturated soils and
prior burn scars.

ESFGJT
A strong low pressure system off the Pacific Coast will begin to draw
in tropical moisture associated with Topical Storm Rachel this
weekend. This strong southerly fetch will draw anomalously high
moisture content across the Desert Southwest and into eastern Utah
and western Colorado. The chance for widespread precipitation
increases Saturday evening into Sunday. Total precipitation forecasts
range from 1 to 3 inches across high terrain, with highest amounts
favoring the Uintas, Tavaputs and the Southwest San Juan mountains.
Embedded thunderstorms are also possible Sunday afternoon, increasing
the threat for flash flooding across vulnerable terrain. While
confidence in location and rainfall rates remain low at this time,
the potential for rapidly rising rivers, streams, normally dry
arroyos and slot canyons are possible Sunday through Monday.
Please follow the evolving forecast, especially if your plans
including recreating or commuting across eastern Utah and western
Colorado Sunday onward. Also, keep in mind weather potential above
your location and upstream, particularly for those who reside below
sensitive terrain like recent burn scars.
