Kelowna takes stock of water levels after thunderstorm hits


Officials are checking the water levels at Okanagan Lake this morning to determine how overnight storms may have contributed to ongoing floods. Yesterday the Central Okanagan Emergency Operation Centre said Okanagan Lake could rise another 10 centimetres because of the storm. Experts are predicting water levels in the lake won't peak until mid-June. Water is already washing across Water Street near downtown Kelowna and residents of a mobile home park in West Kelowna hope today's plans to dam and lower the levels of a nearby canal will save 37 properties. Boat waves on Okanagan Lake Monday evening were non stop.
