1008 AM AKDT TUE MAY 21 2013



...THE FLOOD WARNING REMAINS IN EFFECT UNTIL 1000 PM AKDT TUESDAY FOR
THE YUKON RIVER AT FORT YUKON...

THE ICE JAM 12 MILES UPSTREAM OF FORT YUKON IS CONTINUING TO BLOCK 
MUCH OF THE RIVER CHANNEL CAUSING WIDESPREAD FLOODING OF LOWLANDS 
UPSTREAM OF FORT YUKON. IN ADDITION THE ICE DOWNSTREAM OF FORT YUKON 
IS STILL HOLDING. THIS INCREASES THE POSSIBILITY OF A RELEASE OF 
WATER FROM THE UPSTREAM ICE JAM RESULTING IN A NEW JAM DOWNSTREAM OF 
TOWN. 

FORT YUKON IS CURRENTLY FLOODED IN LOW LYING AREAS ON THE WEST SIDE 
OF TOWN INCLUDING THE BALL FIELD... THE OLD TANK FARM... THE AREA 
AROUND THE TRIBAL HALL AND ONE ACCESS RAMP AT THE AIRPORT. SEVERAL 
HOMES ON THE DOWNSTREAM SIDE OF TOWN HAVE BEEN IMPACTED.  WHILE SOME 
FLUCTUATIONS TO RIVER LEVELS HAVE BEEN REPORTED THESE DO NOT MEAN 
THAT THE RISK OF MAJOR FLOODING FROM THE UPSTREAM ICE JAM HAS 
PASSED. IF THE ICE JAM RELEASES SUDDENLY IT COULD RESULT IN MAJOR 
FLOODING THROUGHOUT THE TOWN OF FORT YUKON. IF THE JAM HOLDS IN 
PLACE LONG ENOUGH IT MAY ERODE AND ALLOW A SLOW RELEASE OF THE 
UPSTREAM WATER.  THIS OR THE EROSION OF ICE DOWNSTREAM OF FORT YUKON 
COULD LOWER THE RISK OF MAJOR FLOODING WHEN THE ICE JAM RELEASES.  

RESIDENTS SHOULD EXPECT A SIGNIFICANT RISE IN THE RIVER WHEN THE ICE 
JAM RELEASES. THE FLOODING COULD BE MADE EVEN WORSE IF A NEW ICE JAM 
FORMS IN THE ICE DOWN RIVER FROM FORT YUKON. THEY SHOULD ACT NOW TO 
PROTECT LIVES AND PROPERTY. THEY SHOULD MONITOR THE SITUATION AND 
CONTINUE TO BE ALERT FOR CHANGES IN RIVER CONDITIONS. 

A FLOOD WARNING MEANS THAT FLOODING IS IMMINENT OR OCCURRING. WATER
LEVELS CAN RISE RAPIDLY AND PEOPLE ALONG THE RIVER ARE ENCOURAGED TO
MOVE PROPERTY TO HIGHER GROUND AWAY FROM THE RIVER BANK.
