The Essex Region Conservation has issued a flood watch. They say that flooding exists for the Lake Erie shorelines, including Pelee Island.

There is potential for strong water surge along the Lake Erie shoreline and potential for significant near shore erosion with wave overtopping and spray.

Ongoing wave activity has the potential to damage shoreline structures that are currently damaged or unmaintained. With ground conditions still wet from
recent rainfall events, waves and spray could exacerbate standing water conditions in low-lying areas.
