| What is normally a small back-eddy, near the top of a Bow River side channel, was today a mid-sized flooded marsh. It was teeming with bird life and waterfowl, including this family of ducks. They were the only ones venturing out on the water today, and were staying well away from the main current, which was high, fast and very brown.

June monsoon!
Banff reported wet snow this morning, while Ft. McMurray basked in 25 degree sunshine this aft. - go figure! A number of Env. Can. tornado watches for cold core funnel clouds remain in effect for Cent. Alta., and the heavy rainfall warnings also remain for the mountains and foothills w. and n..w of Calgary. We will see rain and a blustery wind developing this eve. and continuing for much of Sun. Despite the rocky end to the weekend, the start of next week looks better - drier, calmer, and milder. However, things look to deteriorate again for the latter half of next week
