Source and context? Was he referring to cleanup, or flow rates, and where did he say this.

My power is now out in mission. I can confirm that the elbow is about 3 feet above Macleod trail southbound. It is unreal, the water on the elbow came up at least 5feet overnight!

Do not know how to post pics from phone.

The worst was yet to come, Calgary mayor Naheed Nenshi said as Bow River waters continued to rise significantly during Friday’s early morning hours.

Another 30-35% rise was expected Friday morning by 6 a.m. before the river reached its peak.
