My sister from Medicine Hat took these shots on the highway in Alberta. Pretty scary stuff.

Wow they are awesome pictures ... any chance of getting some high res of all of them?

That's pretty crazy

I wish she did. Sorry man

I guess I misunderstood the email. She didnt take the pictures but either way. Still crazy.

I would have "accidentally" parked my car in the path of one of those.

gorgeous pics... holy crap

Yeah, it's been pretty crazy weather lately. We had about a full week of heavy rain, and since we've had a few summer's of drought, there's that layer in the dirt that prevents some water absorbtion.

Lots of rivers are running real high, and a lot are flooding or covering up the edges of people's backyards that back onto the river. Otherwise, we've had Tornado's where there hasn't been in a long time. All the rivers are brown, and dirty, and the water treatment plants are trying to keep up. A lot of roads are still flooded and the bulk of this rain was from the beginning of last week and the end of the previous week. It's been raining on and off ever since, and there hasn't been much sunshine.

A lot of construction has been halted due to flooding, and I'm sure pumping companies are making huge amounts of money since they have to pump out the near-lake size puddles on job sites, in houses, and on roads.

Although, the thunder and lightning we've been having has been wicked. :D

Incredible stuff.

Looked like Pog lake Saturday afternoon.

wow, if anyone finds those pics in high rez... LMK, i need a new background.

Those are awesome. And I want to move there. (I deflect storms, so even if I moved there nothing would happen, but I'd have a better chance of seeing a cooler storm there I think).
