Memorial Dr - water main break - plows

Two plows clear away icy slush.

This morning a water main break in the Crescent Heights area flooded and closed down east bound Memorial Drive. These photos were quickly taken (it was -28) around 8:00 a.m. on my way to work.

The area was totally cleared by afternoon rush hour.

Just learned that only moments ago a second water main break occurred in the same area, only a block away from my place.  GlobalNews  Yikes!

Still, not as bad as some places.  Winnipeg residents got a little testy after being flooded almost 12 times in 3 weeks.  Fire crews called the police for assistance. Saskatoon has seen more water main breaks than normal, as well.
