The agency says the possibility exists for ice jams to form in that stretch of the river which would create a situation for more serious ice jams to form on the river upstream from Prince Albert.
Ice jams can cause rapid rises in water levels, leading to the potential for serious and significant flooding.
WSA is warning people to take precautions if an ice jam develops and to not venture onto the ice in the vicinity of a jam.
