Flood Watch Along Icy Milk

A flood watch remained in effect through at least Wednesday afternoon for the Milk River from Glasgow to Nashua, above, where ice jams remain. The flood watch area includes central and southern Valley County, including Glasgow, Fort Peck, Hinsdale and Frazer. It's the result of runoff from snowmelt and ice jams, which can cause the river to rise with little warning. The public is advised to monitor forecasts and be alert for possible future flood warnings. Those living in areas prone to flooding should be prepared to take action.
