If you are in a non-evacuation zone. ( http://E.g.at home) prepare for potential power outages. Charge your devices, save your work.

Bridge is now carrying all of the 16th ave traffic, the merge onto Stoney looks like the main bottleneck, and there may be a construction speed zone on the bridge as they are doing construction currently. Could be people gawking as they cross the bridge, but I don't recall that you can see much when you drive over the bridge, but I guess I've never tried.

I have no idea if this is related, but just saw two military helicopters flying into the airport. Looks like they were coming from a north direction, so I was wondering military from Edmonton coming to help?

Well, if there was any doubt, I can confirm that the flood has reached 1 in 100 levels.

Since becoming an annual event in 1923, the Stampede has never been cancelled. I doubt it will this year, as the flood waters should recede fairly quickly, but it seems pretty obvious any events at the Dome are toast, at the very least.
