Ice Advisory

The RFC have issued a River Ice Advisory for the Peace River at the Town of Peace River. The Peace River ice front is expected to recede past the Town of Peace River early next week, in advance of breakup on the Smoky River.

The River Ice Advisory for the Heart River at the Town of Peace River remains in effect.

The ice jam that formed on the Heart River on March 25 at the Town of Peace River remains in place. Water levels have stabilized and fallen slightly. Snowmelt runoff has slowed with cooling temperatures. 

The RFC will continue to monitor conditions 24/7 on the Heart and Peace Rivers and nearby tributaries for signs of increasing snowmelt or rising water levels but no further impacts are expected.
