The National Weather Service in Anchorage has issued a
* Flood Warning for...
Snowmelt in...YENTNA RIVER NEAR FISH CREEK
* Until 415 PM AKDT Monday.
* At 412 PM AKDT, Snow and glacial melt in the Yentna Basin have
caused river levels along the lower Yentna River below Fish Creek
to rise above Flood Stage. River levels are expected to rise
another 1 to 1.5 feet. At this time, locations adjacent to the
river at and downstream of Lake Creek are expected have water high
enough to surround some structures. Also, low lying areas adjacent
to the river are expected to be flooded. River levels are expected
to remain in Flood conditions until July 4.
Residents along this part of the river should prepare for river
levels to continue rising another one to 1.5 feet.
* Structures adjacent to the river are expected to be surrounded by
water. Low lying areas along the river will also be inundated.

...DENSE SMOKE ADVISORY IN EFFECT UNTIL 1 PM AKDT WEDNESDAY FROM
THE STERLING AND SEWARD HIGHWAY JUNCTION SOUTH TO SEWARD...
The National Weather Service in Anchorage has issued a Dense
Smoke Advisory, which is in effect until 1 PM AKDT Wednesday.
* LOCATION...The eastern Kenai Peninsula from around the Sterling
and Seward Highway junction southward to Seward.
* SMOKE...Smoke from the Swan Lake fire will reduce visibilities
to one quarter mile or less at times. The worst conditions will

* TIMING...Through Wednesday, though there is potential for dense
smoke to persist through the remainder of the week.
* IMPACTS...Travel may be difficult due to low visibility.
