 Recent warm temperatures are producing rapid snow melt over the
higher terrain and the upper reaches of the Arkansas River, from the
 headwaters near Leadville, down to the Pueblo Reservoir.  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!
