FOG BLOG CANADA NEWS LOG: RED RIVER FLOOD WARNING IN MANITOBA AS FLOOD WATERS KEEP RISING!

Flood warning issued for Red River Valley from Emerson to floodway inlet south of Winnipeg........Manitoba has issued a flood warning for the province's Red River Valley, from the southern community of Emerson near the United States border up to the Red River Floodway inlet just south of Winnipeg.

The province's hydrologic forecast centre announced the warning in a news release Sunday afternoon.

An overland flood warning is still in place for parts of southern Manitoba, as announced on Saturday.

A high water advisory has also been issued for the Whiteshell lakes area, the province said, as levels on most lakes are still rising because of this weekend's rain and snow melt.

Basins in southern Manitoba — and the U.S. portions of the Red, Souris, Pembina and Roseau river basins — have gotten an average of 60 millimetres of precipitation since Friday. Another 10 millimetres are expected Sunday, which could fall as snow in some areas, the province said.
