Weather stations across the Winnipeg River basin recorded no rainfall over the past week. As a result, further outflow reductions are necessary to balance conditions on the lakes and rivers. While some rainfall is forecast for tomorrow, dry conditions are expected to persist over the coming week.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The current level of\u00a0Lake of the Woods<\/a>\u00a0is 322.89 m (1059.3 ft), a 15th<\/sup>\u00a0percentile level, below the normal range for this time of year. The average lake level declined by 4 cm (1.5 in) over the past week and is expected to decline by up to 1.5 to 3 cm (0.5 to 1 in) over the next week. Lake of the Woods authorized outflow\u00a0will\u00a0decrease to 250 m3<\/sup>\/s on Friday, July 17.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n These outflow reductions will cause the level of the Winnipeg River to decline by approximately 5 cm (2 in) directly downstream of the Norman Dam and 2 cm (1 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 356.10 m (1168.3 ft), a 25th<\/sup>\u00a0percentile level, within the normal range for this time of year.
