The National Weather Service in Reno has issued a weeklong flood advisory for the  Truckee River in Tahoe City.

In anticipation of runoff from the extreme snowpack in the basin water managers on April 21 increased the flow leaving Lake Tahoe through the dam in Tahoe City. The flows will be the highest they have been in 11 years.

This could cause minor flooding along the river from Tahoe City to Squaw Creek near the Squaw Valley ski resort, along bike trails and any low area.. 

The warning is in effect until April 27 at 9:45am.
