have dropped two feet since Tuesday morning and are below
bankfull throughout the village. The roads to the airport
were covered with water as of 2 PM AKDT Tuesday. River Watch
observed the Alakanuk Slough was jammed and backing up at the
mouth at roughly 5 PM AKDT. However, given that there is
little to no ice upstream in the Yukon, the flood threat is
greatly diminishing. Residents should continue to exercise
caution near the ice chunks and high water.

At 7:30am Tuesday the stage was 9.7 feet.
