The Calgary Fire Department lifts a safety advisory for the Bow and Elbow Rivers, saying river conditions have improved enough to allow normal activities to resume. Global News reports that flow rates have slowed to a level that no longer requires the advisory, enabling river users to return to typical plans on and around the rivers. The Calgary Herald adds that while the advisory is removed, water temperature remains cold, indicating cold-water conditions are still present even though hazards related to flow are reduced. Both outlets describe the decision as based on changing river conditions rather than a sustained closure. After the advisory is lifted, the Fire Department’s message is that residents and visitors can go back to regular use of the rivers, while continuing to be mindful of ongoing environmental factors such as cold water. The information reflects the Fire Department’s ongoing monitoring of river conditions in the Calgary area.
