"The ground in many areas is still frozen which will cause low-lying areas to fill with water quickly," forecasters say. "Low-lying areas may become inundated with the noticeable increase in snowmelt runoff.
"People living in known flood-prone areas should take extra precautions to mitigate problems with the expected increase in low elevation snowmelt."
