The BC River Forecast Centre has ended the High Streamflow Advisory for the Upper Fraser East.
Original story:
The BC River Forecast Centre has issued a High Streamflow Advisory for the Upper Fraser River East in the Prince George-area.
A high-pressure ridge system brought seasonally warm temperatures and elevated snow melt across much of the province last week.
Rivers across the region have risen sharply over the past few days due to warmer temperatures and increased snow melt runoff.
Areas of particular concern include tributaries of the Fraser River upstream of Prince George, North Thompson, Upper Columbia, and West Kootenay.
During a high streamflow advisory, river levels are rising or expected to rise rapidly, but that no major flooding is expected.
Minor flooding in low-lying areas is possible.
