Quebec's dealing with spring floods, but officials are breathing a bit easier as river levels start to stabilize across key spots. Even so, the counts of flooded homes are still going up, hitting harder in places like Gatno and beyond. In Gatno, water levels rose way less than predicted on Tuesday, pointing to rivers topping out soon. City reports show about 190 buildings at risk of flooding, with another 300 cut off by closed roads. Folks in Rago, west of Montreal, are still facing rising waters, forcing homeowners like Chris and Sue to boat out their dog buddy and head to. Higher ground. It's a tough scene, but shows the real human side of these floods. Province-wide monitoring backs the good signs, with levels holding steady, or dropping in hard-hit areas like Fort Colange. Montreal's mayor credits past flood lessons, saying quick barricades have kept city homes dry for now. As things level off, crews stay on high alert, ready for any shifts while helping those impacted get back on their feet. From your city, powered by AI, this is Calgary News Today.
