Area waterways holding steady in wake of weekend rain
KAMLOOPS — Rivers in the Kamloops area appear to be holding steady in spite of a major rain event over the weekend.
Meteorologist Carmen Hartt from Environment Canada says the spring storm hit a large portion of the Southern Interior.
“We saw that rain start off Saturday morning and there was embedded thundershowers the whole time. That lasted from Saturday morning all through the night and it sort of tapered off through the day on Sunday.”
Hartt says the weather station at Kamloops Airport measured 12 millimetres of rain over the weekend, but some areas saw quite a bit more.
