Hydrologic Outlook
National Weather Service Anchorage AK
1213 PM AKDT Tue Jul 1 2025
...HIGH WATER ON AREA STREAMS AND RIVERS FOLLOWING WIDESPREAD RAIN...
Over the last 24 hours, abundant tropical moisture has been drawn
north across Southwest Alaska and the Alaska Peninsula. Areas north
of Dillingham have experienced moderate rainfall with some locations
receiving an estimated one to two inches. An additional one to two
inches of precipitation is expected through Wednesday. Precipitation
totals of this magnitude suggest a 5-10 year return interval for
this area.
Water levels on the Nuyakuk River near Dillingham have been steadily
rising for the past several days and this river is likely bankfull
in areas. The river gage currently reads 9.48 feet and is expected
to continue rising slowly for several days as high waters from the
recent rains works its way through the Wood-Tikchik Lake system.
Residents and river users should anticipate high water levels and
are advised to monitor the situation.
Reports on river conditions may be sent to the river forecast center
by calling 1-800-847-1739.
Locations affected include: Nuyakuk River, Wood River, Nushagak
River, and ungaged rivers surrounding the greater Bristol Bay area.
