10 years ago, downtown #Calgary was #underwater due to torrential rains on top of a thick #mountain #snowpack and saturated ground. The so-called #2013floods were the costliest #disaster in Canadian history, eclipsed only by the 2016 #FortMcMurraywildfires. One of my graduate students is looking at the changes to the rivers as a result of that flood, and also currently how the banks currently respond to heavy rain storms.
