In the Interior, including most of the Yukon, Tanana, and Koyukuk River basins, as well
as portions of the North Slope, breakup potential is above average due to higher-than-normal
snowpack levels. In contrast, portions of the Lower Yukon and Kuskokwim River basins, along
with most of Southcentral Alaska, can expect a below-average breakup potential due to very low
snowpack caused by warmer than normal winter temperatures.
It is noteworthy that the
Kuskokwim River Ice Road has been re-established from Bethel to Crooked Creek, indicating
that the integrity and strength of the ice has rebounded since the mid-winter warm-up
NOAA’s Climate Prediction Center forecasts near normal temperatures across most of
Alaska through April. There's a a higher likelihood of below-normal temperatures for the lower to middle Yukon River basins
