Rain breaks Friday, then more rain arrives this weekend

GRAND JUNCTION, Colo. (KKCO) - Rain will diminish early Friday morning, and we’ll get a break to end the week. More rain is on the way for this weekend. A Flood Watch is in effect until noon Friday for southern Mesa County, southwest Montrose County, Montezuma County, La Plata County, Dolores County, San Miguel County, and San Juan county in Southwest Colorado and for southern Grand County and San Juan County in eastern Utah. Excessive rain and runoff can cause flooding and flash flooding. Burn areas from wildfires over the past few years will be especially prone to extremely dangerous flash flooding and debris slides. Rivers, creeks, and streams can also be highly prone to flash flooding. Even dry creeks into which rocky canyons feed can quickly become dangerous or even deadly. The risk exists in these areas and on nearby canyon roads and highways.
