BC floods: Abbotsford braces for more flooding as Nooksack River tops its banks, mayor says | FULL
Abbotsford Mayor Henry Braun said during an update on Sunday that officials in Whatcom County advised him shortly before 2 p.m. that the Nooksack River in Washington state began to overtop its banks.
“We expect that flow to reach Abbotsford later today,” Braun said.
Early Sunday morning, the city issued an evacuation order for 90 properties in the Huntingdon Village area along the U.S. border, as localized flooding from rainfall and snowmelt moved north.
Braun said around-the-clock efforts of contractors and the military to repair and buttress dikes protecting the already flooded Sumas Prairie lowlands had positioned the city well, but that many unknowns remained.
The ongoing rain storm had delivered about 100 mm of rain to the Abbotsford area, Braun said, raising water levels in the flooded Sumas Prairie by about 7.6 cm.
