MATANUSKA VALLEY ALONG THE MATANUSKA RIVER NEAR SUTTON AND NEAR    
MAUD ROAD (BUTTE AREA)

* UNTIL 500 PM AKDT THURSDAY

* HIGH TEMPERATURES OVER THE PAST SEVERAL DAYS HAVE BROUGHT THE 
LEVEL OF THE MATANUSKA RIVER TO THE POINT WHERE IT CAUSED EROSION 
AND FLOODING LAST YEAR. LEVELS ARE EXPECTED TO CONTINUE TO RISE 
THROUGH MIDWEEK BEFORE TEMPERATURES MODERATE AND LEVELS START TO 
FALL.

EXPECTED IMPACTS:
A CHANNEL SHIFT IN THE MATANUSKA RIVER HAS RESULTED IN FLOODING AND 
EROSION OCCURRING AT LOWER LEVELS THAN IN THE PAST. RESIDENTS IN THE 
AREAS CLOSE TO THE RIVER THAT EXPERIENCED FLOODING AND SIGNIFICANT 
BANK EROSION SHOULD BE PREPARED TO MOVE BELONGINGS TO HIGHER GROUND 
AND TO RETREAT TO SAFER LOCATIONS IF FLOODING BEGINS.

PRECAUTIONARY/PREPAREDNESS ACTIONS...

DO NOT DRIVE YOUR VEHICLE INTO AREAS WHERE THE WATER COVERS THE
ROADWAY. THE WATER DEPTH MAY BE TOO GREAT TO ALLOW YOUR CAR TO CROSS
SAFELY. MOVE TO HIGHER GROUND.

A FLOOD ADVISORY MEANS RIVER OR STREAM FLOWS ARE ELEVATED OR PONDING
OF WATER IN URBAN OR OTHER AREAS IS OCCURRING OR IS IMMINENT.
