0315L-TUESDAY OUTLOOK FROM GARFIELD COUNTY EMERGENCY MANAGEMENT- 4/29/25
SEVERE T-STORM WATCH UNTIL 10 AM THIS MORNING. FLOOD WATCH FROM NOW UNTIL MAY 1 AT 1 AM.
A cold front is pushing in this morning and may give us a better chance for rain. At 0315 the front is just west of Medford to just north of Arnett. There are ongoing storms that will be pushing into Alfalfa County moving to the northeast. Other storms will be forming along the front so just be prepared.
We are in a Slight Risk area today so just be prepared for thunderstorms during the day. It shouldn’t rain all day but if storms go severe, it would initially be due to hail and or winds. The front may stall somewhere near the I-44 corridor and the higher threats would remain south of us. This will have to be watched carefully.
