“British Columbians should pay close attention to weather forecasts and local authorities,” said Pader Brach, Emergency Management B.C.’s executive director of regional operations.
“For those at risk of flooding I encourage you to plan now, prepare a grab and go bag, reach out to friends and family, who may be able to support you if you are evacuated so that local accommodations are available for those who have no other options.” In preparation for spring flooding, Emergency Management BC said it has been pre-positioning flood mitigation assets across the province.
Flood watches & evacuation alerts have been issued for communities in the Interior & North. Be ready by having grab-&-go bags for everyone in your household.
