The Ministry of Natural Resources (MNR) Flood Warning for Bracebridge-Minden-Parry Sound District remains in effect until Wednesday, April 22 for the Muskoka River Watershed and Black River.
Locations of particular concern due to the potential for heightened impacts include Lake Muskoka.
MNR advises municipalities and residents to take immediate action to safeguard homes and property. Flooding could occur quickly and with little or no warning.
With precipitation and continued warm temperatures in the forecast, some areas may experience elevated water levels and flows. In some locations, this could approach levels observed in 2019 and may result in localized road washouts, infrastructure damage, and flooding.
Residents and visitors should expect lake water levels to continue to rise and river flows to remain high throughout this week and into late next week.
