Re: Wow the water levels are high this spring
I have a friend in Fredericton. He's shared some interesting stories about the flooding they've had. He lives north of the river on a hill though, so his home came out totally unscathed. His uncle owns a hotel downtown though, and they were saying if the water raised a few more inches it would have friend the building's electrical system.
Still, I don't think St. Catharines has ever experienced flooding as our rivers have an unusually high capacity level for water. No one here has ever worried about that. Seeing Lake Ontario that high was kind of freaky, though.

Don't worry about the water level in lake Ontario I am sure we have friends to the south that will take it off our hands. |

My friend left here during the flooding to go home to fredericton.She got home and called to say all is well and no flooding but she wasn't worried because she live in one of the highest places there.
She called me next morning telling me her basement flooded around 3 to 4 am.Her husband was sleeping in the chair after watching a hockey game and noticed when his feet got cold lol |
