The Lakehead Region Conservative Authority is issuing a flood outlook statement for Thunder Bay, Neebing, Oliver Paipoonge, Shuniah, O’Connor, Conmee, Gillies and Dorion.
The outlook was issued because temperatures are expected to rise this weekend and 25 to 35 millimetres of rain is expected to start Saturday.
Officials say there is also quite a bit of snowpack still in our communities as well.
Flooding from area lakes and streams isn’t anticipated but you can expect some pools of water on roads and parking lots.
