For the moment all attention on high water and fast moving streams is focused on the central inland part of the province (map from River Forecast Centre website) |
With the recent streak of warm weather and now a few days of heavy rain, the prospect of high stream advisories and flood watches for area waters, could be on the minds of many for the weekend.
However in the Northwest at least, the situation at the moment seems pretty calm, with no advisories of note issued as of yet by the BC River Forecast Centre.
The current concerns are mostly for rivers in the Cariboo, Central Interior and parts of the Okanagan, where a range of advisories and notices are now inlace.
To track conditions in the Northwest use this Streamflow Condition tracker, clicking on the dots on the map to learn more about areas of interest that you may have.
More on the River Forecast Centre can be reviewed here.
Information can also be found from the EmergencyInfoBC site, they also relay any updated information on any emergency issues through their Twitter Feed
Should there be emergencies in the Northwest we would use our Emergency Responder archive as one resource to keep up to date.
Other archives would be dependent on the community and the nature of the emergency whether it be seismic, wild fire or weather related.
