The Lake Simcoe Region Conservation Authority is warning of some potential flooding problems this weekend,.
Rainfall accumulations of 20mm to 30mm are forecast for our watershed.
The possibility for localized flooding in various low lying areas of the watershed exists due to this expected rainfall.
The forecasted rainfall will result in higher flows in all our rivers and streams, resulting in dangerous flow conditions.
All watercourses in our area will experience higher than normal water levels.
As a result, local streams and rivers will become dangerous, especially in the vicinity of culverts and bridges.
Children should be warned to stay away from all watercourses.
This Highwater Safety Bulletin will be in effect through Sunday April 17, 2011.
