    Just to add - I couldn't post the picture, but there is one of that man and his cat and two rescue workers coming out of the river to safety. Many kennels in Calgary and around here are posting that they will help with evacuated animals.

    Aw, thank goodness kitty knew to swim! You'll all be in our prayers. Friends in Indiana said they could use some of that rain ... if only we could redirect it!

    Gosh, many folks here would LOVE to send it to Indiana! I don't think it will listen to reason, though....

    Calgary is flooding and flooding badly. People need to stay home, stay off the roads. And for goodness sake stay away from the rivers, the ground is unstable. Getting the photo is not worth your life!

    There was a scene on the news this morning showing what looked like a house being swept along by the flood under a bridge with the roof being torn off.

    How awful. Please stay safe, Albertans!
