Watches/warnings in effect for southern Alberta...

Rainfall warning for:
      City of Calgary
      Okotoks - High River - Claresholm
      Airdrie - Cochrane - Olds - Sundre
      Banff National Park
      Kananaskis - Canmore

      Rocky Mountain House - Caroline
      crowsnest pass - Pincher creek - Waterton lakes Nat. Park.

      Heavy rainfall today and tonight.

---------------------------------------------------------------------
==Discussion==
an intense low pressure system has positioned itself over southern
Alberta today and will remain in place into Friday. Showers and
thunderstorms, which had developed on Tuesday, have changed into an
area of rain over southwestern Alberta. Heavy downpours have already
produced over 70 millimetres of rainfall in the Nordegg, Airdrie,
kananaskis and Pincher creek regions. Another 20 to 30 mm is
forecast for today with over 50 mm possible over the foothills. As
the low slowly weakens tonight and Friday, accumulations will
gradually taper off. However, including today and Friday, another 50
to 100 mm of rain is possible.

Please refer to the latest public forecasts for further details.
