Dike buildup to hold back 200-year flood in Telkwa B C
Fire crews rushed sandbags to raise a dike near Telkwa and prevent a 200 year flood surge from the Bulkley River as floodwaters climbed. Rescue workers stood by in life jackets while residents in about 120 homes evacuated and more than 1,100 faced alerts along regional river systems. Mayor Sharon Hartwell warned of potential snowmelt risks as Terrace, Prince Rupert, and other communities grappled with road closures and panic buying.
