February 7, 2023 - Credit Valley Conservation (CVC) advises that daytime highs will range from 2 to 8ºC over the next several days. Light rain is forecasted for today and up to 20mm is expected on Thursday.
Another weather system is expected to bring up to 30mm of rainfall to southern Ontario on Tuesday and Wednesday, which will result in increased river flows throughout the Grand River watershed.
Ground conditions are frozen and/or saturated due to recent weather events. No significant flooding is anticipated with this event; however, higher river flows in local waterways will increase the risk in low-lying areas typically prone to flooding.
The weather system moving into southern Ontario on Friday will bring mild temperatures and moderate rainfall across the Grand River watershed. These warmer temperatures have triggered a gradual melting of the snow pack, which will result in runoff into local waterways. Moderate rainfall is expected to accompany this weather system with up to 40mm forecast for many parts of the watershed over the next five days.
