At this point, even additional snow or a light rain would not change it too much.
We are in a general weather pattern the last couple weeks where there is going to be, every few days, a weather system moving across the Northern Great Plains. So rain is likely not only Monday night and Tuesday, but late Thursday night and Friday from the next system. So it's an active weather pattern.
It's at crest, but that crest is going to take several hours.
Snowfall estimates tapered off fairly quickly to the south of this band.
It should come in after the crest in the southern areas, which is good news. If we get significant rain into the northern part of the basin, it could affect crest values.
Once we get a significant warm spell, we could see a lot of water start to pool in the fields and ditches.
The mainstream Red River probably would not rise if we get rain, but the area of concern is along the northern border.
