The Saugeen Valley Conservation Authority is warning residents to stay away from water courses over the next few days.
In a watershed conditions statement released Thursday, officials said higher than normal temperatures and between 10 and 20 millimetres of rain are expected to melt the snowpack, resulting in high water flows.
Significant flooding is not expected but the statement cautions rivers could exceed bankfull conditions with minor flooding in traditional low-lying areas.
However, the ground is not frozen so it is possible some of the up to 65 millimetres of water contained in the snowpack will be absorbed by the ground.
