Potential rainfall: 15 to 30 mm.

Potential wind gusts: southerly 60 to 80 km/h.

Remarks: An approaching low pressure system is expected to bring an extended period of rainfall. There is some uncertainty as to where the heaviest rainfall will occur, but the potential exists for significant amounts over some locations.

Mild temperatures and heavy rainfall may lead to rapid snowmelt, significant runoff, and possible flooding, especially in low-lying or poorly drained areas.
