Parks Canada has issued a Water Management Update for Feb 26, 2018 – click here
…………………………………………………………………………………………………….
Weather
The weather forecast is predicting no significant precipitation events over the next 7 days but with positive day temperatures and below 0oC at night.
Outlook
Due to the significant total amounts of rain and localized snowmelt, water levels and outflows continue to increase. The snowpack is below average for this time of the year. The current warm temperatures indicate that the trend in water levels and outflows will be sustained.
The Trent Severn Water Management team will be actively monitoring the changing conditions. Any watershed condition updates will be released by your Conservation Authority or local Ontario Ministry of Natural Resources district.
Haliburton and Northern Areas
Water levels on the reservoir lakes are above average and continue to increase. Flows on the Gull River and the Burnt River are above average for this time of the year. Central lakes are above their average and continue to increase.
