Canada - Web content about Nooksack River
The Nooksack River is anticipated to reach moderate flood levels by Sunday, November 28, which may exacerbate flooding in the Sumas Prairie due to previously damaged dikes.
Whatcom County officials have projected that the river will hit moderate flood stage on Sunday.
The damage to levee systems from earlier storms could lead to more significant impacts on the floodplain areas than usual at these river levels, as announced by the City of Abbotsford on social media on Friday evening.
This situation is expected to affect the city of Sumas and may result in water spilling over the border into Sumas Prairie on Sunday.
Officials in Abbotsford are monitoring the Nooksack River's water levels closely, with an increase expected over the weekend.
The Fraser Valley is forecasted to receive approximately 80mm of rain from Saturday morning, November 27, to Sunday afternoon, November 28, as per Environment Canada.
Areas closer to the mountains may see about 100mm of rain.
The Sumas Prairie is still under an evacuation order, and residents who are on evacuation alert are advised to stay informed by checking the City of Abbotsford's website and social media channels for updates throughout the weekend.
