Additional information:
Precipitation will likely start as snow on Thursday evening. Snow will change to freezing rain, then to rain late in the evening or overnight.
Rain and mild temperatures will lead to accelerated snowmelt, potentially raising water levels in some rivers.
A second low pressure system will bring more rain and mild temperatures for the Easter weekend. The cumulative effect of this week's precipitation amounts will accentuate the impacts on rivers and streams.

Water will likely pool on roads and in low-lying areas. Visibility will likely be suddenly reduced at times.
