Rising water levels prompted by warmer weather have triggered a number of flood watches and advisories around B-C, with one community issuing an evacuation order.
The Village of Cache Creek, nearly 350 kilometres northeast of Vancouver, has issued an evacuation order for a single property along the Trans Canada Highway due to an “existing or imminent” threat of flooding.
Meanwhile, the province has issued high streamflow advisories in east and west Kootenay, Kettle and Granby rivers’ tributaries, as well as the Upper and Middle Fraser regions and the South Interior.
A flood watch also remains in place for the Lower Thompson and Nazko rivers.
