That about sums it up eh? Nice job on both retrospectives. It was a good look throughout the life of this CJ... SAC is looking better than ever these days!

Best,

I don't look at many or any City Journals anymore but I have to say I make a point of checking this one out from time to time. It has a very western Canadian feel to it. I can relate to alot of the work you have done.

[wishfulanthony 3]

I really like your CJ a lot... The quality of the pictures makes them feel realistic to me, and the news reports you deliver are stunning, it is almost true-to-life! Great work, beebsies... another CJ I will be watching!

Once again, really nice job. I loved those nature shots, as well as the mosaic.

Looking forward to more!

25mm of rain broke the banks? How full is this river? Lol, I think you had a little typo there . . . but anyways, great little caption of the events! It sums it all up quite well for people who haven't read this journal (but I'm not one of them, lol). Can't wait to see some more of this great stuff!

[beebs 129]

Update time! Glad you guys liked the look back.. maybe we'll do it again sometime. Anyways, lets take a quick look at what the rain did.

Just a quick look at the Capilano River. Although swollen, it doesn't appear nearly as bad as early predictions thought. However, with more rain expected tonight things could easily change.

I showed this picture a few updates ago, when we discovered the Red River. I'm showing it again just to give a comparison.

As the river was already swollen before the storm reported in the paper, Red River was an area that was in real danger of flooding. Here's how it stood before the storm ran through.

Oh, you might notice an interesting landscape feature of the area that has confused scientists for years... the perfect grid lines marking the landscape in this area. Some say it's aliens.

And a nice overview of the area. That river doesn't look so bad does it?

...Well maybe I spoke too soon.

We'll have developments of how both Red River and Capilano Valley have fared in our next update.

And so, I'll have to leave you at that. Be sure to check in next time to see how the towns have stood up to nature!

un1: Heh, which interchange?

anik: Thank you!

toki.s: Lmao, that was a wonderful place wasn't it. Thanks, toki!

penguin007: Thank you muchly!

sixers33: Wow, thank you Sixers!!

sEAhAwk fAn121: Thanks, hawkasaurus!

Godzillaman: Thanks!

haljackey: Glad you liked it, hal. Thanks!

TheJerseyDevil73: Woah, thank you sir! Gotta say, I learned much of accurate city building from reading EDMONTON.

fabsies55: Thank you!

Mother of Invention: Heh, I assume that's a good holy crap? Thanks!

wishfulanthony: Thanks, anthonius!

cheese91: Thanks, Addie!

tomdapom: Well, dumping half of the average monthly precipitation of August in a few hours will do that. I thought I mentioned in the paper as well, that the areas have had a wet summer as well, leading to the rivers being a little fuller than usual. Glad you liked the updates!

[Theirishnintendonerd 13]

Aww , Its a pity the valley flooded . Its good that there was just farmland there and no homes .

-Trevor

[Mikeaut1 261]

That's such a beautiful landscape you have going on there. I love the way the banks of the river slope up onto the farmland. Great work!

[GreekMan 246]

woah... that's getting crazy!

I posted an ariticle about the flooding in Halifax....

[Hawkeye9 0]

Looking forward to more!!!!

[penguin007 27]

Okay then, now that problem is sorted out, I'll tend to the problem here.

That is one hell of a flood... umm, yeah. how is that even possible? then again Ive never seen a large flooding like you westerners get, how accurate is that to real life flooding?

freaky.

[d_man18 10]

wooah crazy flooding. love the effect tho

[un1 41]

Too much flooding!! I hope the town can recover soon.

-un1

[sixers33 3]

Half of the the land is taken up by 4 farms. Cheap land eh?

That is one awesome landscape capilano valley had

[Almighty Nienaber 3]

how did you flood that area?

[suplado! 23]

wow -- looks really cool, the flood is too realistic,

[pilotdaryl 25]

I think you overdid it? That is a HUGE flood

[jacqulina 162]

wonderfull river there my friend excellent work and pics.

[beebs 129]

Welp, it's update time again! Apologies for the delay, I've been rather addicted to Spore for the past week. Updates should return to the their usual schedule for the next while at least. Now for the update. Just a quick shot, I'll have a paper for you guys tomorrow.

The reach of the flood waters, assessed by the city after the storm had passed.

_{Please do click the image for a full view. You can't really see from the 800x600 shot.}

Well unfortunately, that's all I've got today, folks. I should have a paper tomorrow sometime, Tuesday at the latest that'll give us all some information as to what transpired and how residents are coping. Until then, so long!

Theirishnintendonerd: Indeed! It's the way nature works, though.

Mikeaut1: Thanks, mikey!

GreekMan: Hehe, I saw the article.. thanks!

Hawkeye9: Thank you, glad you're liking things!

penguin007: Thank you!

cheese91: Thanks! Glad you like it

toki.s: Sure it is. Assuming you're referring to Red River, it's entirely possible. This is a bridge in Edmonton.. and here it is in 1915. Minor difference, eh? Of course, this is probably a once in a few hundred years flood.

d_man18: Thank you!

un1: Hehe, thanks! Hope so too.

sixers33: Welcome to Canada. Thanks!

Almighty Nienabar: Rain mod!

suplado!: Thanks, glad you like it!

pilotdaryl: Perhaps. But too late now.

jacqulina: Thanks, jacky!

[un1 41]

Whoa... That flood is huge (or atleast I think so, thee has never really been a flood in Thunder Bay before). Can't wait for a full update.

-un1

[sixers33 3]

Awesome picture Beebs, i wonder just how far that flood will go

Will a death tally be required on the newspaper tomorrow?

[pilotdaryl 25]

OH NO.

[Godzillaman 21]

Westerners and their floods...pfft...a few feet is good enough for me...
