The City of Calgary is closing the Glenmore Reservoir in advance of the big rain that has been forecast over the next few days.
Environment Canada is predicting 60 to 90 millimetres will fall.
The water level is being dropped to accommodate all that rain that would create a massive amount of water flowing through the Elbow River.
A ban on recreational use has also been implemented due to safety concerns.
The reservoir status will be updated daily on the Glenmore Reservoir information page.
