The provincial Emergency Measures Organization is expecting water levels in the St. John River to rise as we get more rain tonight and tomorrow. Sections of Route 105 remain flooded from ice jams including one that formed in the Simonds/Hartland area late Saturday night and remains in place. The Department of Transportation is re-routing traffic in the affected areas through Routes 130 and 103.
Those living and working along rivers are advised to pay close attention to water level increases and ice movement. EMO says an ice-jam can form unexpectedly, and flood waters can rise very quickly.
