...High flows on the Snake and Teton Rivers...

Continued warm temperatures this week will increase high
elevation snow melt across the region and runoff into the 
river system of East Idaho. Increased reservoir outputs
will also contribute to the rivers, continuing or
increasing flows. The Snake and Teton Rivers are expected 
to remain steady or gradually increase through the week, 
and may flirt at times with the thresholds indicated for 
flooding. At this time, flooding along stretches of the 
river is not expected, but as flows increase, some 
encroachment of water at low areas along the banks may 
occur. 

Persons living or recreating near these rivers should
exercise extreme caution when near the river bank. Young
children and pets should be kept away from these areas.

This high flow situtation is expected to intensify during 
the week. Cooler temperatures arriving by Saturday may
mitigate snowmelt at higher elevations, but precipitation
expected this weekend may offset the cooler temperatures.
