A moderate to heavy run of ice on the Porcupine River will be
passing Fort Yukon today. The heavy run of ice from Old Crow
breaking up on Saturday morning was about 100 miles upstream from
Fort Yukon as of 1pm Sunday. Water and ice levels with this run of
ice are covering sand bars, but no significant water or ice has been
seen overbank. Light runs of ice will continue through the week.
The Porcupine River at Old Crow broke up Friday night and jammed just
downstream from Old Crow causing moderate flooding before releasing
Saturday morning.
The Porcupine River at Fort Yukon is currently ice free, but
additional light to moderate runs of ice can be expected through the
week with water levels on the Porcupine River rising through the
week into next weekend. At this time no flooding is expected as
these runs of ice move past Fort Yukon.
