Strong high pressure will bring mostly sunny skies and near to record high temperatures to portions of the Great Basin. This will increase snowmelt and enhance runoff into area creeks and streams, especially those that are susceptible to rapid rises. These include Martin Creek in Humboldt county; Owyhee and Bruneau Rivers as well as Salmon Falls Creek in Elko county. Though the threat for minor flooding remains low, residents are urged to use caution when walking near rapidly flowing waterways as the water will be very cold; hypothermia can occur rapidly if someone were to fall in accidentally.
