![]() I hope everyone in the south is alright. I am not a news reader so came to know about it late. Being from a flood prone country, I know how painful it is to cope up with floods.
I wish all the people the best and hope this dreadful weather will soon be over.

![]() There is huge devastation in Bragg Creek, High River, Banff and Canmore.
All that water in Banff and Canmore has to come through Calgary sooner or later. I don't think we've seen even the worst of it yet. It's not raining here in the city but it's been getting steadily worse all day upstream. This is way worse than 2005, and there was significant damage to the city back then. What a sad terrible day for so many.

![]() I've heard they are shutting memorial drive down overnight as they are expecting the water to crest through the city?
Hard to imagine the destruction when I'm sitting in my office looking out the window and see blue skies..... Hope everyone is safe!

![]() Like I said, I am from a very flood prone country and I have suffered the worst. I know how terrified people can be, especially if they are not used to such incident at regular basis. Hope everything gets well soon.

![]() Hard to believe considering the weather is kind of nice where I am, don't think I'll be heading to the city anytime soon. Hope everyone in the zones are come out OK and the power cuts don't destroy any ones tanks.

![]() Talked to friends and family today in Canmore and it's bad. A few of them have been evacuated and are staying with other friends. One of our friends back yard is gone and the Cougar Creek was only a few feet from the house. They're not sure if it's there still
![]() And my wife's cousin owns a little ranch beside the rail tracks that they do horse back rides and such and it's 2' under water. They had to move all their horses 2X as the water just kept rising. |

![]() Oh hey Tony, remember when we road our bikes through Carburn Park the other day? Well, I'm sorry to report that Carburn Park isn't there anymore
![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Okay, I may be exaggerating a little bit but seriously, half of Carburn is gone and they evacuated the entire park. Those three lakes that were in the pond are now a part of the river ![]() ![]() took my bike out to sus it out but didn't get far.. ![]() Expecting them to evacuate Riverbend possibly.. ![]() |
