February 19, 2014 – South Nation Conservation cautions that watercourses are expected to rise over the week due to above-freezing temperatures and rainfall.

Environment Canada forecasts above-freezing temperatures of 1-7 OC from Wednesday to Saturday and approximately 15 mm rain for this week. The forecasted weather will cause snow to melt and runoff to watercourses, which will increase river levels and flows throughout the South Nation watershed.  Ice covering larger water courses may become unstable due to increased water levels.
