Warm weather on the heels of a record-setting blizzard late last week (week of April 28 – May 2, 2008) in western South Dakota has led to threats of flooding as the snow melts.
A flood warning was in effect for the Little Missouri River at Camp Crook in the far northwestern corner of the state.
The river was forecast to rise to 15 feet and remain above flood stage through Saturday, May 10th.
Minor flooding also was reported on the south fork of the Moreau (MOHR’-oh) River, Sand Creek, Frog Creek and Four Mile Creek in northeastern Butte County.
The National Weather Service has issued flood warnings or advisories for creeks, streams, and rivers in Harding, Butte, Perkins, Meade, and Lawrence counties.
