Conditions have improved in the Fintry area.

After extensive flooding along Shorts Creek Friday, emergency personnel are feeling confident Saturday morning.

害羞草研究所淭hings are looking really good. The water levels have gone down,害羞草研究所 said Jason Satterthwaite, North Westside fire chief.

The blockage under Westside Road has been cleared.

However, there is still a concern about Shorts Creek so an evacuation alert remains in place for 90 properties in the Fintry Delta area.

Properties affected by the alert include those in the delta accessed by Fintry Delta Road, Morden Road and Shorts Road.

Emergency personnel are also issuing a warning to boaters.
