  Recent warm temperatures are producing rapid snowmelt over the
  higher terrain along the upper reaches of the Arkansas River, from
  the headwaters near Leadville, down to near Canon City.  Water
  levels and flows are forecast to increase through today.  At
  this time, river levels are expected to remain below flood stage,
  however, swift flows and cold water temperatures will be dangerous.
  Stay away from fast flowing water!
