Well. We're getting a crazy amount of rain in southwestern Manitoba. Don't know how the rest of you are doing. But frick...our roads are washed out. Basement is flooding. Our inground pool is also overflowing as we speak...and the rain won't let up.

Its crazy. Never seen this much water/rain in my life.

I lived for almost 10 years in Manitoba and it seemed that it was either too dry or too wet, never a happy medium. :(

It's definitely strange weather.. From March until the beginning of May it was so dry there was a ban on open fires. I don't think I've ever heard of that during spring in Manitoba before. Now it's too wet when we usually have our summer drought starting.

Well my town just declared a state of emergency. 3 inches of rain in 45 minutes...and our ground was already saturated from the rain we got last week.

Crossing my fingers for my high school grad day on Thurs. the 24th. So far the weather looks good...

Highway 1 is closed near Medicine Hat right now, southern Alberta around Letbridge, Foremost and Coaldale, lots of rain.

This is just natures way of preparing you for the big move to BC. :lol:
