For Calgary:
1. Downtown is closed.
2. All schools are closed, including post secondary institutions
3. Calgarians are being urged to stay home today.
4. There are many road closures and transit disruptions, and evacuation zones are closed to traffic
5. It's tempting, but don't go sightseeing; your life is more important that a status update with a picture.
6. MORE RAIN IS EXPECTED - if you had plans to travel outside of the city, you may want to rethink it.
