...POSSIBLE SNOW GLACIER DAM LAKE RELEASE...

Based on rising river levels on the Snow River, it is possible that
Snow Glacier Dammed Lake is releasing. At this time, we do not
expect water levels to reach flood stage on the Snow River, but an
additional 2 to 3 feet rise of water levels is likely if a release
is occurring.

As of 2:45PM, the current water level at Cooper Landing is 9.5 feet.
Water levels on Kenai Lake and the Upper Kenai River have started to
rise and would likely rise another 1 to 3 feet, cresting Friday
below flood stage if a release is occurring.

There is always uncertainty with Glacier Dam Lake releases.
Residents living around Kenai Lake should monitor conditions and
prepare for rising water levels.

This statement will be updated daily as more information is
available.
