* WHAT...Flooding caused by rain and snowmelt continues to be
possible.

* WHERE...A portion of central New York, including the following
counties, Jefferson and Lewis.

* WHEN...Through this afternoon.

* IMPACTS...Excessive runoff from snowmelt and rainfall may result
in flooding of rivers, creeks, streams, and other low-lying and
flood-prone locations. Ice jams will also be possible in areas
where significant ice remains.

* ADDITIONAL DETAILS...
- Rainfall amounts of three quarters of an inch to an inch and
a half were observed over the last 24 hours. Additional rain
amounts of less than a tenth of an inch are expected this
morning. Warmer weather over the last few days has resulted
in snow melt, with a deep snow pack in place across the Black
River basin. This will continue to cause rises on the Black
River, Moose River, Independence River, and Beaver River as
well as other tributaries. There is a risk of flooding due to
high flows or ice jams.
