* WHAT...Flooding caused by excessive rainfall is possible.
* WHERE...Seward.
* WHEN...Through Tuesday morning.
* IMPACTS...Excessive runoff may result in flooding of rivers,
creeks, streams, and other low-lying and flood-prone locations.
Flooding may occur in poor drainage and urban areas.
* ADDITIONAL DETAILS...
- A long duration rain event coinciding with an atmospheric
river of moisture moving over the southern Kenai Peninsula
will result in moderate to heavy rain for Seward through
Monday night. 3 to 5 inches of rain is likely (70-80%) with a
low chance (20%) of greater than 6 inches of rain for this
event. The heaviest rain will likely occur through Monday
morning, with the bulk of the rain falling during this time
period.

* WHAT...Flooding caused by excessive rainfall continues to be
possible.
* WHERE...The following areas, Anchorage Bowl and Eagle River. This
includes the cities of Anchorage, Eagle River, Eklutna, and Indian.
* WHEN...From 4 AM AKDT Monday through Monday evening.
* IMPACTS...Excessive runoff may result in flooding of rivers,
creeks, streams, and other low-lying and flood-prone locations.
Creeks and streams may rise out of their banks. Flooding may occur
in poor drainage and urban areas. Water levels on the Chester and
Campbell Creeks will remain elevated through Tuesday morning.
* ADDITIONAL DETAILS...
- Around one inch of rain has already fallen across the
Anchorage Bowl as of Sunday afternoon. The steady rainfall
continuing across West Anchorage and JBER as of 5pm is likely
(60-70%) to taper off to a very light rain or sprinkles by
later this evening. A second round of moderate to heavy rain
is then likely (80-90%) to develop just in time for the
Monday morning commute through Monday evening before tapering
off. An additional 0.50" to 1" of rain is likely (70-80%)
with a low chance (10-20%) of amounts exceeding 1". This
second round of rain on top of already saturated ground may
lead to further ponding of water on area roads, localized
urban flooding, and increased water levels for area creeks
and streams. Additional rainfall may also lead to rockfalls
along the Seward Highway south of Anchorage.

We are monitoring the potential for a coastal storm around
Thursday of this week. There is high uncertainty with the track of
the storm as it could be anywhere from the Yukon Delta to Bering
Strait. Fortunately, it doesn't appear to be a storm that would
come with major impacts. However, there is a chance for minor
coastal impacts and high surf due to gusty southeast winds during
the first half of the storm, then west-northwest winds as the low
passes through. We will continue to update as necessary
throughout the week.

* WHERE...Yentna River.
* WHEN...Until noon AKDT Wednesday.
* IMPACTS...Minor flooding in low-lying and poor drainage areas.
Water could enter a few low-lying cabins along the Yentna River,
particularly near Lake Creek.
* ADDITIONAL DETAILS...
- At 1039 AM AKDT, river gauge reports indicate rises in water
levels from heavy rain across the advisory area. Minor
flooding is expected to begin shortly, especially along the
Yentna River near Lake Creek. Additional rainfall amounts of
1 to 2 inches are possible.
- Anticipate water levels along the Yentna River to surpass
minor flood stage Monday night, then reach a crest Tuesday
afternoon. Water will recede below minor flood levels by
around midday Wednesday.
- For Yentna River at Lake Creek:
At 9:50am the stage was 18.6 feet.
Flood Stage is 20.5 feet.
Forecast: A crest around 21.6 feet is expected around 4:00pm
Tuesday.

Local reports and river gage data indicate a glacier dammed lake
release on the Kennicott River near McCarthy. Water levels on the
Kennicott are currently rising and will continue to rise over the
next 24-48 hours, cresting at or prior to Monday evening.
At this time, the river is expected to crest below minor flood
stage. Widespread flooding is not anticipated, although the
following hazards will be present:
-Significant water level rises (feet/day)
-Bank erosion: Fast moving water may undercut riverbanks
-Debris: Increased flow can carry large debris, including trees and
wood
Recreationalists, hikers and packrafters in the McCarthy area and
along the Kennicott River should exercise extreme caution. Avoid
parking vehicles and camping near the immediate riverbanks. Do not
attempt to cross fast flowing water.

* Yentna, Skwentna and Susitna River basins
* Tonight through Monday Night
Rainfall:
* Widespread rainfall of 1.5 to 2.5 inches of rain is expected in
the Susitna Valley through Monday Night.
Hydrologic Concerns:
* Expect sharp rises on many small streams and rivers. Crests are
expected to occur late Monday night into Tuesday for most streams
and rivers, including the Yentna at Lake Creek.
* Many lower locations along rivers such as gravel bars and other
spots popular for camping and recreating may become inundated with
water with rivers reaching bankfull conditions.
* Heavy rain may result in localized ponding in low-lying areas and
locations with poor drainage.
Next Steps:
* Residents along area streams as well as river users and recreators
should anticipate higher than normal water levels and are advised
to monitor weather and river forecasts.
* Send weather or flooding reports to inws.ncep.noaa.gov/report/ or
by calling 1-907-266-5127.
* Reports on river conditions may be sent to the river forecast
center by calling 1-907-266-5160.
Harrison Lagoon Cabin
Harrison Lagoon Cabin is located roughly 10 miles from the potential Barry Arm Landslide. At this time, there is no indication that a landslide is imminent. However, landslides can happen at any time, and it is suggested that those who recreate in Prince William Sound remain vigilant, have several ways to receive emergency information, and be ready to move to high ground with little to no warning. Should this landslide fall into the water, it has the potential to generate a tsunami that could have devastating effects including demolishing the cabin. For more information please visit the [Barry Arm Landslide and Tsunami Hazard][1] website from the State of Alaska. [1]: https://dggs.alaska.gov/hazards/barry-arm-landslide.html
