The River Forecast Centre  issued this  report:

A storm system continues to affect the Upper Fraser with the heaviest precipitation to date centred in the McBride region.

The majority of precipitation from this event is likely to have already occurred and totals for the 7th of May as measured at the River Forecast Centre automated snow pillows are: Revolution Creek – 50 mm; Dome Mountain – 37 mm; McBride Upper – 30 mm; and Barkerville – 16 mm.

This system will continue to deposit light to moderate precipitation to the region throughout today before slowly moving eastward this afternoon with totals of 10 to 30 mm already recorded since early this morning.

A High Rainfall Warning from Environment Canada remains in place for the Yellowhead area. The freezing elevation remains near 1800 m, and so areas below that elevation are receiving rain while higher elevations are receiving snow. Snowmelt will continue on low and mid slopes.

Small- to medium-sized rivers in the area are rising (Fraser River at McBride, Dore River near McBride; McGregor River; Willow River above Hay Creek) and will continue to rise throughout today and tomorrow.

Discharge on the Fraser River at Prince George will continue to rise for the next few days, but is expected to peak well below levels of concern on Friday. Localized flooding may occur along smaller rivers throughout the upper Fraser area; however, as of yet the River Forecast Centre is not aware of any flooding in the region.

The River Forecast Centre is monitoring conditions and running flow forecast models, and will issue an update Wednesday morning, or earlier, if conditions warrant.
