Parry Sound District is advising area residents that high water levels and flow conditions, typical of this time of year, exist throughout the area and residents are reminded to keep a close watch on conditions and regularly check for updated messages.

With cooler temperatures, banks and shorelines adjacent to water bodies are extremely slippery and unstable. Residents and visitors should exercise caution while around water bodies and maintain close supervision of children and pets.

Boaters are advised to drive with caution, be watchful for floating and submersed debris and minimize their wake.

MNR also advises extreme caution when using forest access roads for outdoor activities as many are seasonally inundated with water, prone to washouts and may be impassible due to current water levels.
