So much rain and so much snow left in the bush the rivers are the highest I have seen them in years.
The Lakehead Region Conservation Authority says its snow-depth survey has found the highest-ever recorded levels for the beginning of May.
On May 2, it measured depths between 26 and 76 centimetres at various locations, compared with the normal average of just two to eight centimetres for this time of year.
In addition, the snow's water content measured from 90 to 327 millimetres compared with the usual amount of only five to 30 millimetres.
Lots of mud in that water.
