Manitoba Infrastructure is increasing the flow from the Shellmouth Reservoir.
They are increasing it by about 120 cubic feet per second to 750 on Thursday.
This increase will raise Assiniboine River water levels by less than half a foot downstream of the Shellmouth Dam.
It’s part of the annual fall and winter draw-down to make room for anticipated spring run-off from the upper Assiniboine River.
The province will issue the first flood outlook in the very near future.
