Didn't an evacuation recommendation for Eau Claire and Chinatown come long ago?

My grandma is in the same spot, LaCaille, but she's being stubborn and staying in her condo, just moved her car to P1 instead of P2.

Nothing yet for the West side of Eau Claire.
Even their Condo management team stated no evacuation yet.

I'm probably late to this game but:

I have an extra bed in my apartment in un-evacuated west end of Beltline. PM me if you need a place to stay.

Stay safe and dry everyone.

It's bad enough that people have houses in Mission, etc but you have to be absolutely nuts to buy in a valley.

Its not a matter of if, but when.

Took a look around 8 or so and there was some flooding leading up towards Chaparral Valley but it seems to be pretty far from the flood zone still so far. They did so much work there and at Riverstone to build up that flood plain, this is a huge test to see if they did a good job or not.
