Precipitation over the last week mostly missed the Winnipeg River basin, once again hitting areas further west in Manitoba. Inflows to Lake of the Woods and Lac Seul therefore continue to decline. To balance conditions on the lakes and rivers, additional outflow reductions are scheduled starting tomorrow.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The current level of\u00a0Lake of the Woods<\/a>\u00a0is 322.94 m (1059.5 ft), a 40th<\/sup>\u00a0percentile level, within the normal range for this time of year. The average lake level declined by 2 cm (1 in) over the past week and is expected to remain stable over the next week. Lake of the Woods authorized outflow\u00a0will decrease to 325 m3<\/sup>\/s on Friday, July 3rd<\/sup><\/strong> and to 300 m3<\/sup>\/s on Saturday, July 4th<\/sup><\/strong>. <\/p>\n\n\n\n These outflow reductions will cause the level of the Winnipeg River to decline by approximately 10 cm (4 in) directly downstream of the Norman Dam and 4 cm (2 in) above the Dalles. The level at Minaki will not be affected by this flow change.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The current level of\u00a0Lac Seul<\/a>\u00a0is 356.06 m (1168.2 ft), a 40th<\/sup>\u00a0percentile level, within the normal range for this time of year. The lake level increased by 4 cm (2 in) over the last week and is expected to increase by 5 to 7 cm (2 to 2.7 in) over the next week. \u00a0Lac Seul authorized outflow will\u00a0decrease to 275 m3<\/sup>\/s on Friday, July 3rd<\/sup><\/strong>.\u00a0<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Precipitation over the last week mostly missed the Winnipeg River basin, once again hitting areas further west in Manitoba.
