Recent warm temperatures and releases from reservoirs will keep fast
and high flows across portions of the Arkansas River. While flood
stage is not anticipated for the locations listed above, swift
flowing water and unstable river banks can be hazardous, along with
the cold temperatures of the snow melt water. Please stay away from
the river banks.
