Flood Warning Posted for Rideau

The region is under a Flood Warning as posted by the Rideau River Conservation Authority. Recent days of melting has shrunk our snowpack by half in less than a week. This combined with some rain has increased water levels along the Rideau and its tributaries including the Kemptville Creek. The water is flowing fast and is expected to rise into the weekend to 1:5 year levels and possibly approach 1:10 year levels. Flooding is expected now in areas immediately adjacent to the waterways in places like Ottawa South and Richmond, as well as Beckett's Landing. The authority recommends that you take actions now to prevent damage to personal property. The link on the left provides information on current advisories and much more information.
