* WHAT...Flooding caused by rain and snowmelt is expected.

* WHERE...Colville River from Umiat to Nuiqsut.

* WHEN...Until Friday morning.

* IMPACTS...Minor flooding in low-lying areas due to rapid

* ADDITIONAL DETAILS...
- As of Tuesday morning rain and snowmelt are causing minor
flooding along the Colville River.

Between 1 and 1.5 inches of rain have fallen through Tuesday
morning. This rain event was preceded over the weekend by
very warm temperatures and has rapidly melted the snowpack
remaining in the Brooks Range.

Rain is expected to end Tuesday afternoon.

The flood crest should attenuate as it progresses downstream,
but water levels are already high in Umiat and minor flooding
should be expected elsewhere.
