more optimistic news this morning.
Over night Abbotsford citizens and staff managed to sandbag a major pump station, loss of it would have been even more catastrophic.
So far it's still functioning and helping to slow the rising water.
The Fraser dropped 2 meters overnight, if it drops another meter the flood gates to it can opened.
No rain in forecast.
Hope as much as possible is being done south of the border to get the Nootsack in control.
That river has changed course before, it's entry point to the ocean changed in the not to distant past.
Wonder if Glacier Creek washed away more properties at Baker Rim. The last time I saw it shift course it took out about a dozen and came close to the complex's clubhouse.
