* ADDITIONAL DETAILS...
  - At 1005 AM AKDT, Last week`s warm temperatures combined with
    bank erosion have led to high water breaking through the
    banks of the Matanuska River between the Old Glenn Highway
    and the River in the Maud Road area. Water levels are
    expected to remain steady following diurnal trends in snow
    and glacial melt upriver. Cooler temperatures this weekend
    should allow for less snow and glacial melt compared to
    previous days. However, periods of rain are expected Saturday
    evening through Monday morning, with 0.20" to 0.40" of rain
    possible around the Palmer and Butte areas through Monday
    morning.

  - For Matanuska River at Palmer:
    At 9:30am the stage was 23000.0 cfs.
