Southeastern Manitoba deals with flooding after heavy rainfall
Some people in southeastern Manitoba are dealing with overland flooding after heavy rain swamped the region overnight on Monday into Tuesday.
The rural municipality of Hanover has closed some roads due to washouts, an update on the RM’s website Tuesday afternoon said.
Reeve Jim Funk said the RM got multiple reports of basement flooding on Tuesday due to heavy rainfall.
Some residents reported walking through waist-high water on roads in areas in the north of the municipality, he told CBC Tuesday afternoon.
Funk said the RM is using pumps to remove water from ditches and basements to mitigate the impact of flooding.
The rural municipality is also offering sandbags for residents facing the threat of flooding throughout the afternoon, adding reports of flooded farmland and drainage ditches running full are not considered emergencies at this time.
Residents in Steinbach are also experience overland flooding, with some roads there still flooded on Tuesday.
