Afternoon February 23 on Florence St. Pincher Creek - Joanne Wittkopf
Updated: A
snowfall warning issued by Environment Canada for Pincher Creek and
much of southwestern Alberta for September 10, 2014 is no longer in effect and has been removed from this article.
Pincher Creek and area experienced isolated power outages, some
experienced temporary internet service disruptions, and many overburdened
trees created many issues, in some cases causing damages to homes,
vehicles, and other property. Fortis responded to at least one downed
power line, in the Scobie Avenue area, and there were signs of damaged/compromised lines in other areas of town as well. Gravel roads in the MD of Pincher Creek
were in rough shape this afternoon. Temperatures hovered around the 0° mark.
