Law Enforcement reported minor flooding on Riverview Drive along Coeur d' Alene River between Cataldo and Pinehurst, Idaho near exit 43 on Interstate 90. Local citizens reported up to 18 inches of water over road in spots.

The wider storm

A four day interval in which a series of warm weather systems with very well maintained moisture feeds from the subtropics slowly moved through North Idaho. These systems brought considerable rainfall to the mountains and valleys and caused much of the mid-slope elevation snow to melt. The resulting runoff caused some streams and rivers to flood in addition to some debris flows, mudslides, and minor street flooding.

Began near Kingston (47.5499, -116.2790).
