A flood watch is in effect for Hamilton, with higher water levels expected in low-lying areas and area watercourses due to rain on Thursday, Hamilton Conservation Authority (HCA) says.

HCA water resources engineer Jonathan Bastien said the main concern is the run-off uncertainty response to the rain.
