Global is reporting that "Alberta Parks has declared a local state of emergency in an area of Kananaskis Country because of flooding that has resulted in hundreds of people being unable to leave campgrounds in the area due to dangerous road conditions."
"Alberta Parks staff and other emergency responders have been dispatched to the area, about an hour west of Calgary, to help evacuate campers, shut down roads and monitor infrastructure in the area."
Seemingly it's because of high rivers from snow melt.
