is at one of the Hummingbird Feeders

NWS Flood Warning
Statement as of 9:14 PM AKDT on August 19, 2008
...The Flood Warning remains in effect until 1215 PM akdt Thursday
for a glacial dammed lake outburst for the Taku River...
At 900 PM akdt the Taku River stage was 42.7 feet and was continuing
to rise.
The Taku River will continue to rise into Wednesday and is
forecasted to crest near or above moderate flood stage of 44 feet as
the Glacier dammed Lake No Lake continues to drain. The Taku River
will remain above flood stage into Thursday. People who have
property along the Taku River should prepare for high water and make
sure things are tied down or off the ground as water will rise into
yards and into cabins.
People traveling on the Taku River and near Taku Inlet should use
extreme caution as the flood waters are producing hazardous
conditions. Logs and ice chunks are expected to be floating down the
river and the cold water draining from lake no lake will accelerate
the time for hypothermia.
A Flood Warning means that flooding is imminent or has been reported.
Stream rises will be slow and flash flooding is not expected.
However...all interested parties should take necessary precautions
immediately.
If you live near or along Taku River stay alert and be prepared to
take action.
Remain cautious when in low-lying areas...and report any flooding to
your law enforcement agency. They will relay your report to the
National Weather Service forecast office in Juneau.
Please stay tuned to NOAA Weather Radio or your favorite local
weather news source for updates on this situation.

UNTIL 1215 PM AKDT THURSDAY
AT 1222 PM AKDT THE TAKU RIVER CONTINUES TO RISE TOWARD FLOOD

HIGH LEVEL AND FLOW INTO THURSDAY.
WATER TEMPERATURES REMAIN IN THE UPPER 30's WHICH FURTHER SUPPORTS
THAT A GLACIER DAM HAS RELEASED. THE VERY COLD WATER WITH HIGH LEVELS
AND STRONG FLOW HAVE CREATED VERY HAZARDOUS CONDITIONS. EXPECT

PERSONS WITH PROPERTY ALONG THE RIVER SHOULD USE EXTREME CAUTION
DURING PREPARATIONS FOR THIS FLOOD.
A FLOOD WARNING MEANS THAT FLOODING IS IMMINENT OR HAS BEEN REPORTED.

- 0447 ADT (Posted here at 0618): Flood Watch now
in effect from 4 PM ADT this afternoon through
late tonight for the Taku River.
NWS Flood Watch
Statement as of 4:47 AM AKDT on August 19, 2008
...Flood Watch now in effect from 4 PM akdt this afternoon
through late tonight for the Taku River...
The Flood Watch is now in effect for
* a portion of AK...including the following area...Juneau
Borough and northern Admiralty Island.
* From 4 PM akdt this afternoon through late tonight
* Significant rises have occurred on the Taku River since Monday
afternoon...while water temperatures have continued to cool
beyond what is normally expected. This is likely caused by cold
water released from a glacially dammed lake just across the
border in British Columbia. Observations of this lake earlier in
the month showed that the water levels were very high...so the
additional water has the potential to raise the Taku River to
flood stage around 4 PM akdt Tuesday.
* As of 3 am akdt Tuesday...the river stage was 40.6 feet and a
water temperature was 39 degrees Fahrenheit.
A watch means conditions are favorable for the development of
flooding in and close to the watch area.
Persons living near the river...or planning trips to the area...
should stay alert and be prepared to take action if a warning or
advisory is issued...or flooding is observed.
This statement will be updated by 12 PM akdt Tue or sooner if
conditions warrant.

Borough and northern Admiralty Island.

water released from a glacially dammed lake just across the

addition of this water has the potential to raise the Taku River
to near flood stage by midday Tuesday.
* As of 11 PM akdt Monday...the river stage was 40 feet and a
water temperature of 40 degrees Fahrenheit. Additional data will
be received early Tuesday morning.
A watch means conditions are favorable for the development of

NWS Special Weather Statement
Statement as of 3:35 PM AKDT on August 07, 2008
...Weather conditions for this weekend in the Stephens Passage
and southern Lynn Canal areas...
The weather pattern for this weekend is shaping up to be
dominated by the marine layer. Winds will be light to 10 knot
northerlies each morning. By each afternoon expect winds will become
southerly to 15 knots. Seas will rise to 4 feet in the afternoons
especially near Point Retreat and in Taku Inlet. Drizzle and
patchy fog is likely each morning with visibilities improving into
each afternoon.
A weather front will approach the Panhandle late Sunday and we expect
locally breezy conditions. At the moment we are not forecasting
winds to 25 knots or seas to 5 feet in the Lynn Canal and Stephens
Passage area until Monday.
Another complication for this weekend forecast is a possible
Glacier dam release into the Taku River. Should this happen expect
debris within Taku Inlet Friday through Sunday including but not
limited to tree branches and other vegetation debris, ice, lawn
chairs, and other household debris.
Stay tuned for further updates on the Taku River and Inlet areas
as more information becomes available.
This statement will be updated by 4 PM AKDT Friday or sooner if
conditions warrant.
