WHERE...The southwest Adirondacks, the western Mohawk Valley, and the Upper Hudson Valley. WHEN...Through this afternoon. IMPACTS...Excessive runoff may result in flooding of rivers, creeks, streams, and other low-lying and flood-prone locations. Creeks and streams may rise out of their banks. Flooding may occur in poor drainage and urban areas. ADDITIONAL DETAILS... - Mild temperatures over the past few days has allowed snow on the ground to ripen and melt.
