Alberta Environment Flood Warnings as of 12:45.

Everything in the Bow basin is now under Flood Warning, except the Bow upstream of Calgary, which is still at only flood watch.

The Elbow river below the dam and the Bow river downstream of Calgary were upgraded since this morning.

Nope. Don't expect highways to open for a few days. They can't even start any kind of repair until the water levels go WAY down.
