A Flood Watch has been issued for Lake Ontario and the Bay of Quinte shoreline from Grafton to Quinte West.
Lower Trent Conservation says residents along the shoreline should be aware of the potential for erosion and flooding.
Water levels on Lake Ontario have rapidly increased. Cobourg gauge is still below the extreme highs of 2017 and 2019.
With the higher than average water level, surge related flooding along the shoreline is possible with high onshore winds as well as increased potential for erosion damage from wave action.
The Flood Watch will be in effect until (or updated before) Friday, June 23rd.
