Huron County’s two conservation authorities have issued flood outlooks for the region.
With up to twenty millimetres of rain expected Wednesday in parts of Huron County, along with elevated temperatures, the Ausable Bayfield and Maitland Valley Conservation Authorities says the risk of flooding is higher than normal.
With a combination of rainfall and snowmelt on saturated soils, a relatively quick runoff is expected.
This could create minor flooding in low-lying areas and close some secondary roads with traditional flooding problems, according to conservation officials.
The Flood Outlook advisory is in effect until Monday.
