The Lake Simcoe Region Conservation Authority has issued a Watershed Conditions Statement in effect until March 12. Rainfall is forecast for tonight through Sunday in our watershed, with predicted rainfall accumulations up to 45 mm. Higher amounts of rainfall may occur in localized areas as a result of thunderstorm activity.

The forecasted rainfall may result in flooding of low lying areas. All watercourses in our area will experience higher than normal water levels and flows. 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.
