Take a moment to talk with your children about water safety this spring. A little awareness goes a long way in keeping everyone safe while enjoying the outdoors.
Spring brings warmer weather and outdoor fun, but also rising water levels across Huron and Perth counties. Melting snow and …seasonal rain can turn calm streams into fast-moving, dangerous waterways.
Even small creeks and drainage channels can become hazardous this time of year. Here's what families need to know:
Keep children safe around water
– Stay back from fast-moving water and riverbanks
– Avoid playing near swollen creeks, culverts and bridges
– Watch for muddy or unstable banks that can collapse without warning
– Be extra cautious after heavy rain or rapid snowmelt
– Always supervise children around any open water
Remember: Cold water can cause shock and rapid loss of strength, even for strong swimmers. Water that looks calm on the surface may have strong currents underneath.
Stay safe!
