Thanks. We've been in touch with everyone and everyone's safe. Here's a recent aerial pic of the highway where cougar creek used to run under it.

And here's a vid, you can actually see my buddy's place in it.

Kien and I have both been evacuated. Hoping they can avoid cutting power.

Greg isn't even in town so hopefully his house is ok (in deer run with me)

horrible, I work downtown near elbow and water running through pretty fast and high. Office shut down tomorrow because of flooding

[Coralgurl]

Ahh man, this sucks! Do you have time to to move anything? I'm on the other end of the city but if anyone needs to move livestock, my tank is available. And if you need a place to stay, my doors are open, pets welcome!

I heard on the ctv news that the evacuated areas were going to have the power cut. The news never mentioned anything about the other areas. I really feel bad for everyone who's effected by the floods
