Hydrologic Outlook
ESFGRR
Steady melting of snow and ice over the last week has begun to cause
rivers to rise across the area. Several chances for rain this week
will add to these rises. Based on current expected rainfall, no
significant flooding is expected on West Michigan rivers, though
typical spring water level rises within the river channels will
happen.
Meanwhile, river ice has weakened significantly over the last week,
and as water levels rise any remaining ice will likely be broken and
start to move downstream. This creates the possibility for formation
of a few ice jams. Ice jams tend to form in the same places
repeatedly, so special attention should be paid in the Comstock Park
(Kent County) area as well as the Robinson Township (Ottawa County)
area along the Grand River.
Anyone living or working near West Michigan rivers should pay extra
attention this week as water levels rise. Have a plan to monitor and
respond if flooding develops unexpectedly.
