Be careful if you're heading out on the Wisconsin River this weekend.

Melting snow and ice could cause dangerous flows above and below the dams on the river.

Water power company leaders are asking boaters to stay away from the dams when the flood gates are open, because the flows could cause you to tip over.

Also, strong undercurrents could drag an anchored boat down.
