Details: 
...FLOOD WATCH REMAINS IN EFFECT THROUGH THURSDAY AFTERNOON...

Warm temperatures may melt snowpack and increase river flows.

* WHAT...Flooding caused by a combination of rain, snowmelt, and ice
jams is possible.

* WHERE...All of northern New york and northern and central Vermont.

* WHEN...Through Thursday afternoon.

* IMPACTS...Excessive runoff from snowmelt and rainfall will cause
sharp river rises, likely resulting in river ice break up. Ice
jams will be possible, along with rapid onset flooding. Flooding
of rivers, creeks, streams, and other low-lying and flood-prone
locations will be possible and creeks and streams may rise out of
their banks.

* ADDITIONAL DETAILS...
- Mild temperatures will lead to rapid rises on area rivers
through early this week. This will be followed by widespread
rain Wednesday into Thursday. Rising rivers will cause river
ice to break up and flow, potentially resulting in ice jams
and associated flooding. As rain moves in Wednesday, the
threat will turn more toward open water flooding for those
waterways that have lost their ice. Any open water flooding
will likely persist through Thursday.
