The City of Edmonton is issuing a water supply alert.
Heavy rainfall over the past 24 hours has pushed the region's stormwater system to capacity, with localized flooding and backups being reported in neighbouring communities. If the stormwater system continues to operate over-capacity, flooding and sewer backups will continue to increase.
Area: This alert is in effect for the entire City of Edmonton.
Affected areas (1): - Edmonton
Action to take:
- Avoid unnecessary indoor water use
- Limit showers and baths
- Delay laundry and dishwasher use
- Ensure sump pumps and downspouts are functioning properly to direct water away from homes

Just got around to setting up a Matrix account and trying to be more active with it.
Anybody have any suggestions to more popular communities or spaces? Seems to be a bit hard to find something.
Anything fediverse oriented? Not really sure what I'm looking for tbh.
