  IS EXPECTED TO CONTINUE DOWNRIVER TO RAMPART AND TANANA BETWEEN

  WATER LEVELS COULD RISE RAPIDLY AND FLOODING COULD OCCUR AT

PRECAUTIONARY/PREPAREDNESS ACTIONS...

A FLOOD WATCH MEANS THERE IS A POTENTIAL FOR FLOODING BASED ON
CURRENT FORECASTS.

RESIDENTS ALONG THE YUKON RIVER BETWEEN RAMPART AND TANANA SHOULD
MONITOR RIVER CONDITIONS AND TAKE PRECAUTIONS TO PROTECT LIFE AND
PROPERTY. WATER LEVELS CAN RISE VERY QUICKLY IF AN ICE JAM
OCCURS.
