Record-breaking flooding threatens Juneau, Alaska, for the third consecutive August due to a glacial outburst at Suicide Basin. The Mendenhall River is expected to reach major flood stage, exceeding last year's levels. Officials urge residents in the inundation zone to evacuate, and a preemptive disaster declaration has been issued. The flooding is attributed to climate change and the accelerated melting of glaciers.
