The most <br />serious threat now is rain. Although radar <br />images of the atmosphere can provide general <br />clues as to the potential for precipitation, <br />radar alone is not adequate for precise <br />forecasts in localized areas or rugged alpine <br />terrain. <br /> <br />Ground-based instruments that measure <br />actual rainfall and immediately report by radio <br />are essentia I tools in the effort to provide <br />accurate and timely warning of flash flood <br />events. Automated rain gages are currently <br />being deployed in the Hayman area as quickly <br />as possible. This web site shows the location <br />of those gaging sites and provides current and <br />accumulated data from them. <br /> <br /> <br />R/11102 <br />
