I just read web news headlines about it.
Quite dramatic.
Anybody we know affected?
I am not sure if our esteemed leader is near this region - major blind spot on Canada geography, which is odd, for me (goofing off during middle school paid off: teacher had me draw five color copies of the map of the world...been a geography enthusiast since!).
Not directly, but we were going to head down towards this area today, to run a relay with 10 people. Ain't gonna happen. Race has been canceled of course.
Here's High River, video shot from a combine, leaving the Co-op.
This is crazy.

Heard that the water is up to the tenth row at the Saddledome.
The whole Calgary downtown area evacuated -> http://www.ctvnews.ca/canada/calgary...core-1.1335330
The City of Calgary has ordered an evacuation its entire downtown core -- an area where approximately 230,000 people work on a typical Friday.
My brother lives in Calgary, on the edge of town and far from the chaos, but his job is underwater and without power. I'm thinking he's laid-off indefinitely.
His girlfriend's house is at edge if disaster with the flood making its way halfway up her street. If the water rises 5 more feet, she may have to move in with my brother.
I said this is God's way of telling him to commit and take their relationship to the next level.
He didn't think that was funny. Too soon?
Wow, crazy stuff! Stay dry Robert!
