From Casey Grove in Anchorage --

High water in the village of Buckland caused the National Weather Service to extend a flood warning until noon Friday. Multiple ice jams on the Buckland River diverted water into the village during the spring breakup.

Water came up two feet from Wednesday night to this morning, but no damage had been reported by afternoon.

Have pictures of flooding or high water you'd like to share with the rest of the state? Send them to Kyle Hopkins at khopkins@adn.com.
