What the National Weather Service wrote

Moderate flooding occured in and around Emmett along the Payette River.

The wider storm

A deep low pressure system anchored in the Gulf of Alaska and a zonal flow pattern across the Pacific Northwest and Intermountain West provided the right ingredients for a sustained moisture plume which produced convection and periods of moderate to heavy rain over a three day period causing flooding and flash flooding, and severe thunderstorms across Southeast Oregon and Southwest Idaho.

Began near Emmett (43.8700, -116.5000).
