ESFABQ Risk of areal flooding and elevated stream flows from rapid snowmelt ...EXISTING CONDITIONS... Recent storms have brought several inches of snow to mid to high elevations (8500'->10500')over the Sangre de Cristo, Jemez and Tusas mountains throughout north central New Mexico. This snow pack contains on average 2-4 inches of liquid equivalent. With warming temperatures expected over the next 48 hours, these regions are vulnerable to flooding from rapid snowmelt. ...Temperatures... There is a greater than 50% chance of temperatures greater than 68-70 degrees over the snowpack. These temperatures along with the relatively high sun angle observed in mid may

ESFGJT Risk of areal flooding and elevated stream flows from rapid snowmelt ...OVERVIEW... Mid to high elevations (8500' to 10000') along the San Juan Mountains and along the Divide through central Colorado are susceptible to enhanced runoff and elevated stream flows from rapid snowmelt. ...TEMPERATURE... High temperatures will continue to run 5 to 10 degrees above normal through the weekend, with overnight lows remaining above freezing for mid to high elevations. This warming trend carries into Monday, resulting in highs climbing 10 to 15 degrees above normal. Said departure from normal increases from south to north. ...PRECIPITATION... Isolated to scattered

ESFAFG As of Friday afternoon, ice and water continues to flow past Galena, even though there is still some in-place ice slowing it down above Pilot Mountain Slough. There are a few more short in-place sections of ice between Galena and Nulato that should not cause any significant jamming concerns. Below Nulato, the river ice remains in-place with signs of lifting and thermal degradation. The Yukon is open from Galena upstream to the Nowitna River with the exception of a small (

ESFAFG The Yukon River at Ft. Yukon broke up Tuesday with minor flooding. The breakup front remained stalled at 6 Mile Island below Ft. Yukon as of Thursday afternoon. Water levels remain low upriver. The ice between Fort Yukon and Beaver is slowly degrading, with water levels rising Wednesday night into Thursday at Beaver. Beaver is expected to slowly break up Friday through Sunday. The timing of the breakup front reaching Stevens Village and the Dalton Highway bridge could be anywhere from 1-5 days. This hydrologic outlook will expire at noon on May 10 and not be continued unless there

ESFAFG The Yukon River has broken up in Galena. Ice started running Thursday around 5 pm and has continued overnight. Reports indicate that moving ice has continued past Bishop's Rock and down to Nulato. Kokrines Bible Camp reported the river open and ice free on Thursday evening. The ice is quite rotten and moving smoothly with a water level rise of 7 ft accompanying the ice run. River Watch will be flying downriver from Galena to the breakup front today and then checking upstream to see how much ice has cleared out and will provide updates.
