This has probably been posted, but I searched the last few pages and couldn't find it. As far as I know currently City of Calgary and Calgary Police Services do not need volunteers, but if you want to volunteer the Calgary Drop-in Centre has been evacuated to 4804 Edmonton Trail NE and is looking for volunteers as well as supplies (food, blankets, coffee, etc.)

This is only for those living in the NE. You can't really get to Edmonton Trail from the south now, unfortunately.

Emergency Alerts for Willow Creek #26 and Vulcan.

Quote:
The Twin Valley Reservoir will be opened immediately. All residents south of Twin Valley Reservoir are advised to evacuate immediately if you are in the area below the dam. The evacuation centre is located in the Town of Stavely in the town's community hall.
Evacuate immediately and take all necessary precautions.
Quote:
There are elevated water levels in the Bow and Little Bow Rivers in Vulcan County which are expected to continue rising.

The floodgates on the Twin Valley and the Travers Reservoirs are being opened and large amounts of water will be entering the Little Bow River basin

Ha!
Unrelated but this made me smile.

Watching the american news channels for any updates on the flooding and just saw a paid advertisement by Senator Cruz for

"abolishing the IRS"

Now, his SuperPac was listed... can't help but think this is just a money grab on some poor people who think something would actually happen if they donate.

It wasnt when we left about 1.5 hours ago. It has to rise significantly before that area will be affected.

There isn't the same sociological problems that lead to that type of behavior in Calgary ie widespread poverty

This is one of the few times that I really enjoy living on the side of a hill. I hope that everyone is staying safe.
