High Water in High River

[DX-300]

I'm hearing EOC comms being organized on VE6HRB/VA6CTV as the river levels are rising in the Highwood River. Their predicting 40-50mm of rain for the foothills as I write, and there was a considerable increase in the river's level since 3pm I hear.

Fortunate that rains stopped around midnight or we could have had a repeat of 2005. Amateur radio part of EOC was stood down around 0300 local time as Highwood River was no longer rising. High River was busy most of night with sand bagging.
