The most likely rainfall scenario forecasts 1.25 to 2.75 inches for
the valleys of Idaho and Clearwater counties in north central Idaho,
and 3.00 to 5.00 inches expected in the mountains, but precipitation
will be mainly in the form of snow of 2 to 6 feet.

The rainfall will increase the risk of rock and landslides across
north central Idaho. Continue to monitor the latest forecast updates
