Credit Valley Conservation Flood Watch Message #1 - June 18, 2026
Credit Valley Conservation (CVC) is upgrading its active flood outlook statement to flood watch. Environment and Climate Change Canada (ECCC) has continued yesterday’s special weather statement into today, advising additional heavy rainfall with amounts between 5 and 15 mm, and a continued risk of thunderstorms.
CVC’s middle and lower watershed have already received local rainfall amounts between 50 and 70 mm. Soil in the watershed is currently saturated and water levels of the Credit River and Lake Ontario tributaries are elevated and continue to rise. This has resulted in local flooding of the Lower Main Credit River through Mississauga, specifically Streetsville and Mississaugua Golf and Country Club, as well as Silver Creek at 8th Line and Loylaist Creek at 5th Line. Localized flooding risk will continue, especially if the forecast thunderstorms develop.
Urban streams and rivers may be dangerous, especially in the vicinity of culverts, bridges, and dams. People are warned to stay away from all watercourses and to keep children and pets away.
CVC will continue to closely monitor weather and water levels in the watershed. The Flood Watch will be in effect through Thursday June 18th, or until further notice.

To view current watershed conditions, visit our real-time monitoring website.

Real-Time Monitoring Data and information released from Credit Valley Conservation (CVC) are provided on an 'AS IS' basis, without warranty of any kind, including without limitation the warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose and non-infringement.

Soccer has been cancelled today due to weather conditions. We were hoping the rain would hold but Mother Nature had other plans.
We'll provide updates about rescheduling as soon as possible.
Apologies for the late notice and thank you for your understanding.
