The warning is also in effect for areas around Bear Lake, Aleza Lake, Giscome, the Cottonwood River, Chilako River, Salmon River, Willow River and Pack River as well as tributaries around Quesnel and Williams Lake.
A combination of warmer overnight temperatures and rainfall have increased snowmelt rates, the warning says.

A Flood Warning is issued when river levels exceed or will imminently exceed bankfull, impacting flooding of areas adjacent to the affected rivers.
