SAINT JOHN, N.B. – Officials in New Brunswick say floodwaters were expected to peak yesterday in the Saint John area.
At one point, the Saint John River rose to 5.7 metres above sea level at the city, where flood stage is 4.2 metres, and was expected to drop to 4.8 metres by Friday.
Officials say levels elsewhere in the province, including Fredericton and Maugerville, were also forecast to recede through the week while staying above flood levels.
