Summary
Calgary’s rivers are surging from relentless rain and melting snow, with Bow and Elbow levels rising—but officials say flood risk remains low. The city’s soaked with 60-80mm of rain already, and more’s coming. Fire crews warn of dangerous currents, closed river pathways, and urge everyone—including pets—to stay away from banks. Cochrane RCMP echo the warning as creeks threaten to overflow. Meteorologists say rain isn’t done yet—another 20-40mm expected through Tuesday. Flooding even forced the OB Sound Room in the Beltline to shut down. A flood watch is active for Kananaskis and Lake Louise areas, while Banff’s Bow Falls now has caution tape due to high water. Peak river levels? Still too early to say. Support the show: Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
