Crowe Valley Conservation Authority has issued a Flood Outlook Statement for its watershed effective March 19, 2025.
CVCA staff monitor the water levels and flows throughout the watershed daily and update flows on the website weekly.

The CVCA monitors weather information, river flows, snow pack and ice conditions in order to predict when floods will occur and how high the water may rise. When flooding is possible, or about to occur, the Crowe Valley Conservation Authority issues flood messages to municipal emergency management officials and the media.
As a result of a review of flood message terminology, Crowe Valley Conservation Authority and Conservation Authorities across the province are introducing some changes effective immediately. These changes will ensure that Conservation Authorities use consistent terminology in line with that used by other agencies such as the Ontario Ministry of Natural Resources, Environment Canada and the Weather Network.
