Can confirm. A good friend works for TransAlta as part of the team managing water levels. For weeks they have been concerned about the amount of snow in the mountains and have been lowering reservoirs in anticipation of a rain event like this.
This sort of thing happens all of the time without much hoopla, but he has described this year as a bit more concerning than most.
