2011 Western Manitoba Flooding Photos

As many of you know - I live in Western Manitoba, well Brandon, but my family lives in Westman too. The entire region is experiencing incredibly nasty floods that are some of the worst in several decades. It's nuts. Places that are generally dry in April are 5 feet deep in water.

To make things worse, mosquito season is already out and with lakes of water that are going to go nowhere, this summer will possibly be the most bug infested summer of all time.

Check out my Flickr Set of photos taken of the Souris River flooding and the flooding at my parents farm - that's caused by local Oak Lake overflowing and having nowhere else to drain so it heads south.

Enjoy!
