Rainfall and snowmelt runoff from the north is rapidly filling reservoirs in that part of the basin. Water levels and flows are beginning to stabilize from Pembroke down to Chats Lake but will continue to rise in the Lac Deshênes area in the Ottawa/Gatineau region down to Carillon causing minor flooding in low-lying areas.
