Hydrologic Outlook
National Weather Service Fairbanks AK
210 PM AKDT Wed Aug 27 2025

The headwater tributaries of the Koyukuk, Kobuk and Noatak Rivers
have received substantial rainfall in the last several days leading
to record crests at Slate Creek near Coldfoot (30 years of record)
and Dahl Creek near Kobuk (39 years of record).  Rainfall is
expected to continue in the Western and Central Brooks Range through
Friday, keeping water levels on rivers high and continued standing
water in poorly drained areas.

The crests from the early week rainfall are making their way down
the main stems of the Kobuk, Koyukuk, and Noatak Rivers through the
end of the week. Expect river levels to remain high through the
weekend.
