A slow thaw of ice and snow along the St. John River has been a welcome sight for thousands in recent weeks, but tensions could rise over the next 24 hours. This as a heavy rainfall warning has been issued by Environment Canada. Emergency Measures has issued several updates on the ice flow and river level in recent days with nothing major to report and their next update is expected this afternoon and that is sure to change. Up to 30 millimeters of water is expected.

Heavy flooding last spring forced several people from their homes causing millions of dollars in damage.
