...THE FLOOD WARNING REMAINS IN EFFECT UNTIL 1000 AM AKDT THURSDAY 
FOR THE YUKON RIVER AT FORT YUKON...

AT 1200 MIDNIGHT WEDNESDAY MORNING INFORMATION WAS RECEIVED FROM A 
FORT YUKON RESIDENT THAT THE ICE JAM HAD BROKEN AND THE WATER LEVEL 
IS RISING. IT WAS OBSERVED THAT ICE CHUNKS ARE FLOWING DOWN ONE SIDE 
OF THE CHANNEL.

THIS SUDDEN BREAK OF THE JAM HAS CAUSED THE WATER LEVEL TO BEGIN TO 
RISE SLOWLY. A RUSH OF ICE AND WATER IS STILL POSSIBLE AND MAY CAUSE 
SUDDEN FLOODING SIMILAR TO A DAM BREAK. THE JAM APPEARS TO HAVE 
RELEASED AND IS SLOWLY RELEASING THE UPSTREAM WATER...BUT WITH 
INCREASED SNOW MELT IT IS LIKELY THAT THE WATER LEVEL WILL RISE MORE 
RAPIDLY. FORT YUKON IS CURRENTLY FLOODED IN LOW LYING AREAS ON  THE 
WEST SIDE OF TOWN INCLUDING THE BALL FIELD...THE OLD TANK      
FARM...SEVERAL HOMES...THE AREA AROUND THE TRIBAL HALL AND ONE       
RUNWAY APRON AT THE AIRPORT. 

MAJOR FLOODING THROUGHOUT THE TOWN OF FORT YUKON IS EXPECTED TO      
DEVELOP BETWEEN NOW AND WEDNESDAY MORNING. WHILE FLUCTUATIONS IN 
RIVER LEVELS ARE OCCURRING...THE REAL DANGER IS FROM THE ICE JAM 
UPSTREAM OF FORT YUKON THAT HAS JUST RELEASED. THE ICE JAM UPSTREAM 
HAS RELEASED AND THE WATER LEVEL IS EXPECTED TO RISE MORE RAPIDLY 
AND WILL PUSH WATER AND ICE INTO FORT YUKON CAUSING MAJOR FLOODING. 
THIS IS A DANGEROUS SITUATION. 



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.
