* ADDITIONAL DETAILS...
- An ice jam has been reported by the River Watch team along
the Yukon River near the mouth of the Yuki River. This
indicates that local ice is more resistant to breakup. As the
front progresses towards Galena residents should be prepared
for the possibility of an ice jam downstream of Galena
including near Bishop Rock.

- Water levels in the Porcupine River are rising due to
snowmelt which is pushing water int the Sucker River near Ft.
Yukon. The Sucker River is starting to flow over low lying
roads near the NE end of the runway. Water levels could keep
rising for several days as the snowmelt pulse in the
Porcupine makes its way into the Yukon River. Residents of
Ft. Yukon should monitor water levels through the end of the

* ADDITIONAL DETAILS...
- For Kwethluk: Ice jammed in the lower Kuskokuak channel at
and just upstream of the Y, or confluence with the Akiak
Channel of the Kuskokwim, has resulted in water rising in and
near Kwethluk. River Watch aerial reconnaissance noted water
has already started inundating surrounding low-level areas
near the community. Aerial reconnaissance also noted that
there are several spots of open water in the upper portion of
the Kuskokuak Channel, as well as downstream beyond the Y.
Until the ice shifts or moves, residents should prepare for
continued rising water levels, particularly in flood-prone
lower areas.
Akiak and Tuluksak: Original ice still in place which may
cause flooding as the breakup front moves downstream from
Kalskag.
Ice jams have been observed at/near Tuluksak, a few around
Akiak, and near Bethel, with a decaying jam near Napaskiak
downriver. Almost no intact-original ice is in place above
Bethel, with a mix of broken sheets.

As of 3pm Tuesday afternoon the Yukon River breakup front was
located at the mouth of the Yuki River 25 miles below Ruby. The
breakup front stalled and jammed there for most of the day. Water
levels continue to be high at Ruby due to the jammed breakup front.
Ice runs extend almost 100 miles upstream of the breakup front. The
River Watch team will fly this section of the Yukon Wednesday and an
update is expected later Wednesday.
