Quote from article 1

"Up to 16 Saskatchewan communities have declared a state of emergency
Eight highways, most located near the Man. border have been closed
Heavy rainfall over the weekend in southeast Saskatchewan has some communities struggling to keep up with the influx of water."

Quote from article 2

"

The cities of Melville and Yorkton in Saskatchewan declared states of emergency Sunday due to heavy rainfall that flooded streets and overwhelmed sewer and drainage systems.

Environment Canada has issued rainfall warnings for a big stretch of southern Saskatchewan and Manitoba, including the cities of Regina and Brandon, Man. As much as 125 to 150 millimetres of rain is expected throughout the weekend."
