North_Bay_Conservation_AuthorityAs of 8am, the area received 25 to 30 millimetres of rain in a 24 hour period and that has resulted in a flood warning for the North Bay area.

The North Bay-Mattawa Conservation Authority issued the warning and will be monitoring conditions.

Officials say combined with the melting snow pack, it has caused ground conditions to become saturated and water levels to rise.

There have also been reports of flooding in low-lying areas.
