A flood warning for Blue River west of Williams Lake has ended but warnings are still posted for the Quesnel River as flood warnings, watches or advisories cover much of BC.
The River Forecast Centre says it's uncertain how snowmelt will be affected by this weekend's heat wave that will bring temperatures in the low to mid-30s to most of the province.
But it says unsettled weather and thunderstorms could raise flood risks again next week.
The City of Abbotsford says levels of the Lower Fraser River could peak as early as next Thursday and while major flooding is not predicted, Abbotsford officials say the river could stay high for several days.
