SVCA Flood Watch for Pinkerton - March 20-25, 2026
Saugeen Conservation has reduced the Flood Warning to a Flood Watch for Pinkerton as conditions begin to improve. Intervention measures have helped reduce flows over Bruce Road 15 and around affected homes. However, flooding is still occurring in low-lying areas, and impacted residents remain at risk. A Water Safety Statement remains in effect for the rest of the Saugeen watershed. While water levels are declining, they are still high, and freezing rain today will create slippery and dangerous conditions near rivers and streams. Stay back from all watercourses and keep family and pets at a safe distance. This message is in effect until March 25 at 4:30 p.m., unless updated. A reminder that Municipal Road Closures are posted to Municipal 511's website.
