There appears to be a lull in the region's high water action, but the runoff season is not nearly over yet.
Regional District of Fraser-Fort George spokeswoman Rene McCloskey said there was no new flood activity expected over the long weekend.
"We will certainly still be monitoring," she said, "but it would appear most of the streams and rivers we have been watching have all peaked."
The trouble spots were all as a result of rains combined with the melting of lower-elevation snowpacks. There was more snow than usual at lower levels, and the late spring prevented it from melting in a slow manner.
There was a rush of water that caused rivers like the Chilako, Willow and Salmon to experience a bigger rush of water than usual.
What is still to melt, said McCloskey, is the higher-elevation snowpacks. That was slightly higher than usual in its accumulation, but not enough to worry flood forecasters.
That runoff is what affects the largest rivers: Nechako and Fraser.
"We are looking at possible seasonal flooding, not historic flood levels, but in dealing with Mother Nature you never know what is in store," she said.
"There will be some high water for sure, but given the high volume of snow we had this winter, I think people believed we would have significant flooding. Now it looks like it will be only some localized flooding if all goes according to normal. We just can't ever guarantee things will be normal."
