With 40-50 millimetres of rain possible today through tomorrow Ausable Bayfield Conservation says rivers will exceed bankfull, resulting in flooding of traditional low-lying flood plain areas.
Stream flows in smaller tributary creeks are expected to peak later today (Friday).
Major flooding is not expected.
The heaviest rain is expected to come in two waves today (Friday) with the second wave beginning late this evening and overnight.
Flows on larger rivers are not likely to peak until later this weekend.
Flows will remain higher than normal through most of next week – so use extreme caution near all watercourses.
