A high streamflow advisory remains in place for parts of B.C’s Interior:
In a weather synopsis, the River Forecast Centre said a strong upper ridge that brought hot temperatures across the province is breaking down.
“An upper low is expected to bring unsettled weather and showers today, particularly for the South Interior,” the centre said in a statement Sunday.
“Another period of warmer temperatures is expected next week, with well above temperatures expected.”
Rivers have been rising in response to elevated snowmelt runoff.
According to the centre, lows in areas around the Nazko River, West Road (Blackwater) River, Bonaparte River, Deadman River, and Criss Creek are currently in the two-year to 10-year range with additional rises forecast Sunday and into next week.
