“We can say we are lucky in terms of the weather because it has calmed down and we have less rainfall,” said Andre-Ann Ducesne, a spokesman for the Ministry of Transportation.
Catino in surveillance mode
The water level has risen slightly since late Friday.
However, there is nothing to worry about with this increase, which the city of Catino says should continue on Sunday afternoon.
According to experts, the size of the Katino River should decrease by the beginning of the week, but residents are being invited to keep their sandbags.
