The Lake Simcoe Region Conservation Authority is advising that a slow-moving low-pressure system is expected to move across Lake Simcoe watershed starting late Friday through Monday. A series of precipitation events of up to 60 mm are forecasted to bring a mix of snow, rain, freezing rain, and ice pellets.
Widespread flooding is not expected, however, the possibility for flooding in various low-lying areas of the watershed exists due to the expected rainfall. Watercourses will be flowing higher than normal causing local streams and rivers to become dangerous, especially in the vicinity of culverts and bridges. Children should be warned to stay away from all watercourses.
This Watershed Conditions Statement will be in effect through Wednesday, April 2.
