Notes
Heavy rainfall over the past several days have damaged rivers and creeks to overflow their banks yesterday. Highway 25 between Terrace and Kitimat was cutoff by a washout at Williams Creek. In Kitimat, meanwhile several areas were reported underwater and dikes hard-pressed to contain the swollen Kitimat River.
Photograph of the Terrace-Kitimat Highway in which it has been the subject of talk by both Terrace residents and Kitimatians for a long time. Kitimatians taking every advantage of the wonderful weather over the weekend, took their families out for a drive to Hirsch creek bridge, the farthest they can go on the Kitimat end of the highway. Cars are seen lining along the highway near the bridge.
