The Columbia Shuswap Regional District is warning residents to be cautious about rapidly rising water levels.

In a media release from the CSRD, the Shuswap Emergency Program stated cooler spring weather has delayed snow melts but warned of a predicted rapid increase in temperatures in the coming days.

Shuswap temperatures are forecast to hit the mid- to high-20 degree mark this weekend, and snow melt and runoff could quickly increase, reads the release.

Residents with properties in flood-prone areas near these smaller bodies of water can take proactive protection measures. People are advised to monitor water levels and keep an eye on any signs of flooding or land slippage.

The CSRD also reminds people to be careful around fast-flowing water and to supervise children and pets.
