The Winnipeg River basin is experiencing a period of dry and very warm conditions. As a result, the previously high flows in the headwaters are returning to normal levels. As these reduced flows gradually move downstream, inflows to Lake of the Woods and Lac Seul are also expected to decline. While both lakes are still steadily refilling, outflow reductions may be required over the next couple of weeks to align with the decreasing water supply.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The current level of\u00a0Lake of the Woods<\/a>\u00a0is 322.85 m (1059.2 ft), a 60th<\/sup>\u00a0percentile level, within the normal range for this time of year. The average lake level increased by 5.6 cm (2.2 in) over the past week and is expected to increase by about 3 cm (1 in) over the next week. Lake of the Woods authorized outflow is 550 m3<\/sup>\/s with no changes scheduled at this time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The current level of\u00a0Lac Seul<\/a>\u00a0is 355.64 m (1166.8 ft), a 60th<\/sup>\u00a0percentile level, within the normal range for this time of year. The lake level increased by 15 cm (6 in) over the last week and is expected to increase by 10 to 14 cm (4 to 5.5 in) over the next week.\u00a0Lac Seul authorized outflow has been adjusted to 415 m3<\/sup>\/s to reflect actual outflow and there are not changes scheduled at this time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Join Us at the Matiowski Farmers Market!<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Come visit the Lake of the Woods Control Board (LWCB) at the Matiowski Farmers Market in Kenora on June 10th<\/strong>!<\/p>\n\n\n\n We\u2019ll be set up at the Jarnel Contracting Pavilion from 8:30 a.m. to 2:00 p.m.<\/strong> Stop by to meet Board members and Secretariat engineers, ask your questions, and learn more about water regulation across the basin.<\/p>\n\n\n\n We look forward to seeing you there!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" The Winnipeg River basin is experiencing a period of dry and very warm conditions.
