Water levels in southeast Saskatchewan continue to rise
At least two homes in the Estevan area have been evacuated because of rising flood water.
While most of the areas in southern Saskatchewan that have seen flooding are watching the water slowly recede, the province's daily flood briefing on Thursday revealed that water levels in some southeast areas continue to rise.
That's due to the reservoirs in the region spilling over, thanks in part to the foot of snow and two inches of rain that has fallen in the last two weeks.
Duane McKay with the corrections, public safety, and policing ministry says that area is seeing the bulk of the province's attention this week.
