Donohue, QC

Coastal flood warning issued jointly by Fisheries and Oceans Canada (Science) and the Meteorological Service of Canada - Quebec region.

Higher than normal water levels are expected near the shore Friday morning.

The combination of these winds and the fact that we are currently in a period of high amplitude tidal range could produce minor flooding along the coast near theses localities, on the dates and at the times specified (local time).
