ESFAFG The Yukon River is open from Tanana to beyond Kaltag. With water levels remaining low, stranded ice remains on banks and in side channels. Above Tanana, from Ft. Yukon to the Tanana River confluence, the river ice remains intermittently intact and very degraded. As this ice begins to move out and water levels eventually rise, ice runs can be expected to continue through the end of the week.

ESFAFG The river ice at Hughes lifted on Friday and is thermally degraded but in-place down to Winthrop Point. Below Winthrop Point the river is a mix of degraded in-place ice on bends alternating with open stretches of water to near the mouth which is open for several miles upstream of the community of Koyukuk.

ESFAFG The Yukon River is open from Tanana to Grayling and opening up at Anvik. Below Anvik the river is a mix of open areas and thermally degraded in-place ice. The River Watch team will be in the air over the lower Yukon starting tomorrow and will provide updates daily.

ESFAFG Based on ice running by Galena for most of the day on Saturday, it is likely that the in-place ice from the Boneyard to the Nowitna River is getting pushed out. The river is open from Ruby down to Kaltag with continuing ice and ice stranded in shallow areas. In-place ice remains several miles below Kaltag as of Saturday evening.

ESFBYZ Expect very warm temperatures through Monday. Enhanced snowmelt in the mountains will continue to increase flows on area rivers and streams through the first part of the week. While flooding is not anticipated on larger rivers and streams, there is a chance that some smaller streams could reach bankfull in and near the foothills, producing minor flooding. At the very least, stream flows will be much higher with the increased snowmelt. Water rises will occur first on small streams flowing out of the foothills, eventually arriving on larger rivers and streams. The rate and magnitude of the water rises

ESFTFX Despite cooler temperatures expected this week, the recent string of warm daytime and mild overnight temperatures has spurred an increase in high elevation snowmelt, resulting in within bank rises on some creeks and upper tributary rivers near the mountains. Scattered precipitation through Monday may add to some localized runoff but widespread precipitation expected to develop across primarily central and southwest Montana Tuesday and Wednesday is likely to fall as snow at elevations where a lingering snowpack exists. Significant rises are not expected on larger rivers, but some creeks and small rivers in the mountains and adjacent foothills may reach
