Been sitting at work since 6am getting my Platoon ready to head south.....still waiting. Guys are pumped to get down and try to help in someway but here we sit.......really wishing the Government would make up their mind if they want more troops.

Thank you!!! It's nice to know you've got our backs

311 troops have been sent to Canmore, from Edmonton. I'm sure that there will be more needed.

It's nice to see a little light from the deck.

Little Red behind my house and a few of the dam. If you live on the RD and have shiite that floats I'd move it too higher ground I think. Little Red dumps in downstream of the dam so add it's flow to what you see coming over the spillway.

Don't think so. They're from fb today

No I was there and I have that same picture. I had to turn and go up the on ramp at 32 ave and that is where that pic was taken. The deerfoot has not flooded in that area at all today. I just drove by there again 45 minutes ago. Just can't believe everything you see on the net.

Just heard on the news, that this afternoon. the Bow was flowing at 513 cubic meter's/ minute.

I'm not a mathalete....... But I do know that that is a large volume of water!!!

The Bow, still has not crested, but the Elbow has.

Were still waiting for more run off, from the mountains too

Not a very good picture I could not get any closer. But the railway track is hanging in the air here in okotoks about an hour ago.
