Not that horrible game.
Apparently the flooding here is getting pretty epic. =(

I agree.
But that does suck pretty badly. I hope it doesnt get any worse.

Global warming HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH THIS, regardless if it's real or not.
-_-
Any city built along the Red River is built in a flood plane. Flooding is a totally natural occurrence. If it stopped flooding, then something would be seriously wrong.
We have a really kickass floodway system, but the gates were open really late because of ice jams around the locks. So now we have basement lakes along the river. Happy to say that I'm too far away from the river to be affected.

Ah, floodway systems failures ALSO suck.

Every year with you guys, it's like you could set your watch to it. "Oh Winnipeg is flooding? Got it!"

Having some of the worst floods ever doesn't at all make these floods different than they are every year?

*Shrug*
Only spectacular difference between this flood and the flood of 1997 are the ice jams. The severity is close to identical.
I don't think it's anything to get all up in arms about quite yet.

Global warming is a myth.

But, yeah... hope you survive?
