EASTERN OREGON โ€” (Release from the Oregon Department of Transportation) Crews are reporting high water on roads in Malheur, Harney and Grant counties in southeastern Oregon. Watch for flooding and debris. Rain and warmer temperatures are expected through Tuesday, which may lead to increased snowmelt. Overnight freezing temperatures are also anticipated later in the week, raising the risk of icy roads, especially in the early morning hours.

Crews are actively monitoring known sites. Slow down and drive with caution. If you encounter an area with high water, stop. If you cannot see the road, turn aroundโ€“do not drive through the water. Conditions can change at any time, so be prepared for potential delays and detours. Check weather forecast and TripCheck for the latest conditions.
