The Manitoba Government says the Red River crested at Morris on Monday and is cresting now at Ste. Agathe and St. Adolphe.

Forecasters say the river levels will stay at the crest for a few days before slowly going down.

They add the river is above its banks at many locations, including Emerson, Letellier, St. Jean, Morris, and St. Adolphe, however levels are still several feet below the 2011 crest.
