A unique feature on the Free Press website is showing dramatic changes in the level of the Red River.
Photographer Mike Deal is capturing video of the rising Red River at The Forks and the floodway control structure south of the city. He’s filing videos daily as the crest of the Red nears and viewers can see how the water levels change from day to day.

THE Free Press has introduced a live coverage widget on our website at winnipegfreepress.com to bring you the most up-to-date flood information available.
This widget includes a Twitter feed of the Red River’s height at James Avenue in Winnipeg.
Reporters and editors will post to the widget, and readers can interact by commenting and posting updates of the flood’s impact in their area.
We will keep this “Cover it Live” widget running for the duration of the flood threat.
