...WARM TEMPERATURES AND WIDESPREAD RAINFALL LEADING TO RISING
WATER, OVERFLOW AND OPEN WATER ON AREA CREEKS AND STREAMS...

Recent and continuing warm weather and widespread rainfall have led
to rising creek and stream levels from the Kenai Peninsula north
into the Mat-Su Valleys. Overflow has been reported on creeks and
over existing trails. Increased streamflows may also lead to
localized ice jams. Those traveling on backcountry trails are
encouraged to take extra caution around area streams, rivers and
trails, as water may degrade ice and create difficult or hazardous
conditions.

Additional warm and wet weather is expected this weekend, which may
lead to additional river rises and overflow conditions.
