## extract

Marine Weather Statement — Stephens Passage
Severity: Minor. Certainty: Observed.
A glacier outburst is currently ongoing on the Taku River. As a
result of the release, debris in the water is possible on the Taku
River, extending down Taku Inlet, & into Stephens Passage,
particularly for Wednesday. Furthermore, the water temperature
near the Taku River and into Stephens Passage may be much colder
than normal, possibly by more than 10 degrees. Typically a release
of this type along the Taku River lasts from 1 to 3 days. The
National Weather Service and Alaska River Forecast Center will
continue to monitor conditions going forward and update this
statement as necessary.
