Sharp rise and fall of South Saskatchewan an anomaly for City
MEDICINE HAT, AB – Flow rates on the South Saskatchewan River have dropped drastically from a week ago, however the City of Medicine Hat say they’re not out of the woods yet.
Well into the month of July, the City is still taking a close look at the South Saskatchewan as it has been an unusual season of steep rising and falling levels.
Addressing media at a press conference on Tuesday, director of emergency management Merrick Brown said it’s been a strange year monitoring the river.
