The Manitoba Hydrologic Forecast Centre says strong winds starting today could affect shorelines on its lakes.

The province says wind from the Northwest gusting up to 70 km/h an hour and wave action could have an effect on water levels.

According to the wind effect forecast, conditions will be "moderate" on the South shores of Dauphin Lake which means levels could rise by roughly 1 or 2 feet and wave action will be moderate. Conditions are "low" on the shores of Lake Winnipegosis near the village which means levels could go up by 1 foot and wave action will be low. Otherwise there is no data for any other shores on Lake Winnipegosis or Dauphin Lake.

Specifically, the alert map mentions that the Manipogo area is expected to get a Northwest wind blowing at an average of 36 km/h throughout the day today and is supposed to pick up to 40 km/h in the evening.

The winds are expected to continue until early tomorrow.
