Description: Alberta Emergency Alert: Overland Flow Flood Alert Updated
Melting snow had lead to overland flooding, which caused water flowing over and eroding roadways. Multiple roads within the Siksika Nation were accessed and closed, but repairs have been underway. 80 % of the prior effect roads are now passable, but still use extreme caution as some of the roads are very rough. For persons living in low lying areas, the creeks are accumulating fast moving water
Go to: Siksika Media/Facebook page for further information and on road conditions .
Action to take:
- Do NOT travel through any remaining water covered roads, as there may be hidden hazards
- If you are aware of roads that are affected by water and have no signage or barricades, or if you are concerned about the potentially rising creek waters, please contact the Siksika Emergency Management Team
