FROM GARFIELD COUNTY EMERGENCY MANAGEMENT-SATURDAY 8/12/17
 
THE FLOOD WATCH REMAINS IN EFFECT THROUGH SUNDAY MORNING. An additional 1-3 inches of rain is possible through tomorrow morning as more rain develops this morning through tonight. That said, the severe threat looks to be in the southern part of the state later today but we’ll keep an eye out. Rain may persist all day as this system moves through. We are in just a GENERAL THUNDERSTORM risk area so we’ll see how this evolves.
