A flood warning has been issued for part of a southeastern British Columbia river and many other waterways in the province are under flood watches as heavy rain has the potential to push surging rivers and streams over their banks.
The River Forecast Centre posted the flood warning for the Elk River at Fernie and added flood watches to rivers around Invermere, Radium, Revelstoke and as far west as the Shuswap, while maintaining flood watches for rivers from the Cariboo to the East Kootenay.
