Keep a close watch on water conditions, says Ministry

All ice on lakes and rivers should be avoided, according to the Ministry of Northern Development, Mines, Natural Resources and Forestry.

The Ministry has issued a Watershed Conditions Statement for water safety for the Bancroft District. Although the snowpack has reduced significantly, around 40 millimetres of rain is expected over the next few days, which will add to water levels across the region. The Ministry warns to stay clear of ice and keep a close eye on pets and children. Rain over the weekend has also contributed to higher elevations of water.

The Water Safety Statement will be in effect until April 20th.
