Riverside residents are keeping an eye to the sky and the water this weekend. Provincial emergency measures organization officials are predicting river waters will be at - or - very near flood stage in our area by tomorrow. So far - the Saint John River has spilled over its banks slightly in the Fredericton area -- but -- the water level in the capital city area is expected to begin dropping tomorrow. The good news is Environment Canada says there isn't any heavy rain in the forecast over the next couple of days.
