SNC advises that the Flood Watch Statement updated on March 17th is being extended. Environment Canada is forecasting precipitation amounts up to 10 mm from Thursday to Saturday. Temperatures are expected to return to seasonal day-time highs with sub-zero temperatures at night.
Residents in flood prone or low-lying areas, historically susceptible to flooding, should take the necessary precautions to protect their property. Please ensure:
- Sump pump is clear, in good working condition and has a backwater valve on it.
- Easy access to portable backup generator and pump.
- Downspouts are clear and the outlet is at least 3 m from the dwelling.
- Driveway culverts are clear of debris and drain well.
- Securing items that might float away as flows increase.
