There seems to be an increased sense of urgency for northern residents to flee their homes, as two evacuation-related SaskAlerts from days prior have been re-issued.

The pre-evacuation alert for the R.M. of Paddockwood and the voluntary evacuation alert for the Resort Village of Candle Lake were reissued on Thursday.

A post on the Sask Lakes website advises residents of Paddockwood in the Aspen Ridge, Cranberry Creek, and Torch Light RV Park areas to be prepared in case they need to evacuate.
