Flood Watch issued May 1 at 11:41AM AKDT until May 5 at 12:00PM AKDT by NWS Fairbanks AK

* WHAT…Flooding caused by an ice jam continues to be possible.

* WHERE…YUKON RIVER EAGLE TO CIRCLE

* WHEN…Through Monday morning.

* IMPACTS…Creeks and streams may rise out of their banks.
Low-water crossings may be flooded.

* ADDITIONAL DETAILS…
– The Yukon River at Eagle broke up around 2am today with a
push of water and ice still moving past Eagle. Breakup is
progressing downstream and could reach Circle by early
Friday. Satellite images from Wednesday showed ice remains in
the main channels at Circle and upstream. Exact timing for
breakup at Circle will depend on how often the breakup front
is stalled by ice jams along the way. Ice jamming at Circle
is possible and could result in minor to moderate flooding.
There have been reports of water over banks upstream, so
monitor conditions closely and take preparatory actions now.
