Humboldt

The town of Aberdeen, northwest of Humboldt, is contending with floodwaters in and around its area. A social media post from the Town Office said that a state of emergency had been declared.  

The post noted that water was collecting within the town and work was under way, in consultation with the Saskatchewan Public Safety Agency and the RM of Aberdeen to control the water.
