The South Thames watershed, including Woodstock and Ingersoll, received approximately 60-75 mm of rain yesterday.

The Upper Thames River Conservation Authority (UTRCA) reports that much of the North Thames River watershed, including St. Marys, Stratford, and London, received more than 100 mm of rain. 
 
Ditches, creeks and streams rose throughout the day Wednesday and many have reached bank full conditions or spilled their banks. Many low lying areas and parklands are being inundated, such as the St. Marys Flats, and Harris and Gibbons Parks in London.

The UTRCA’s flood control reservoirs at Fanshawe (London), Wildwood (St. Marys), and Pittock (Woodstock) Conservation Areas are being operated to reduce downstream flooding.
