| FLOOD ADVISORY— TERMINATION May 4, 2011 |
|
This is a TERMINATION of the FLOOD ADVISORY issued by Mississippi Valley Conservation (MVC) for the Mississippi River at Dalhousie Lake and Mississippi Lake. Water levels have peaked in these areas and are expected to begin to drop by mid week. Levels are expected to remain high for the next two weeks then return to close to normal levels by Victoria Day weekend barring any significant rainfall events. No further updates will be issued with regard to this flood advisory. Spring water conditions pose a serious threat. Water levels can rise in a short period of time and near freezing water temperatures can quickly produce hypothermia. Parents are reminded to warn children to stay away from all watercourses and ditches during this time. |
