Area residents living near water courses are keeping a close eye on water levels these days. Some roads in low-lying areas in the South Nation River watershed were flooded Tues- day. Water levels were expected to peak in the Alfred Plantagenet area between We- dnesday afternoon to Thursday morning. Meanwhile, Grenville-sur-la-Rouge offi- cials were keeping an eye on the Rouge River.

Flooding is a spring tradition, however, on June 29 of 2013 a landslide occurred on the Rouge River Road.

In addition to flooding, there is also potential for blocked storm drains, catch basins and culverts which may also cause localized flooding. Residents are advised to stay away from rivers as rain and higher temperatures may rapidly increase river flows, cause slippery river banks, and weakened ice cover. Pa- rents are encouraged to explain these dan- gers to their children. SNC cautions residents to be aware of the
