The Mississippi Valley Conservation is predicting some flooding in the watershed as a result of the 75 plus millimetres of rain the area received over the past two days.
Some flooding can be expected on Little Marble and Marble Lakes.
Water levels on Dalhousie Lake are also expected to increase 10-15 cm over the next couple of days resulting in levels being just slightly below a normal spring flood level.
Carp River levels have increase dramatically over the last 24 hours but are not expected to increase much more and are expected to peak later today.
Levels on smaller creeks have already or are expected to peak Thursday.
Levels will remain high throughout the watershed for the remainder of the month as this water moves down through the watershed.
