Latest update suggests nothing relating to additional power or water shut off for unaffected zones. Those outside the zones are better off staying home rather than adding to the traffic issues to chase down supplies and generators.

The mayor tweeted this and it hit the news....

The sun is now shining here but still dark clouds around.

We didn't head out today and I think I'm overloaded on this. Not to minimize the impact on those affected but gotta tune out for a bit. Think I will do a water change.....

No water changes Unless you're dumping water outside. Help reduce load on treatment plants to prevent water from being shut off for others.

Everything is normal by me, water seems fine, not even raining anymore. We have a canal behind the house that often rises with heavy rain and snow melt but it hasn't risen at all that I can tell.

Oh and I think the issue with Calgary water right now is treatment of freshwater not raw so people should refrain from using water especially for our luxury tanks

Shame on any retailer selling bottled water at a jacked up price since there was no boil water advisory(I am updated hourly)and there wont be.Don't believe tweets and facebook rumors peeps!this no better than looting IMO.At least in Calgary,downstream may be a differant issue.

Yup, just heard that home depot is selling 24 bottles of water for $45. Needless to say home depot can go f*ck themselves when it comes to getting my business.
