No Beach Postings For Mackinac Weekend

Lake Huron beaches tested weekly for water quality by Lambton Public Health are clear.

Beaches sampled include Grand Bend, Pinery, Ipperwash, Highland Glen, Bright's Grove and Canatara Park.

No warning signs are posted but we're reminded the water at area beaches can be temporarily polluted for up to 48 hours following heavy rainfall.

If the water becomes cloudy due to wave action, bacteria from the bottom may become suspended and increase the risk of illness.
