Torrential rains and widespread flooding in southern Alberta have left people throughout the province in awe at the power and scope of the devastation and concerned about the uncertain hours ahead.

'I watched a refrigerator go by, I watched a shed go by, I watched couches go by. It's insane.' —Canmore resident Wade Graham

The floodwaters have washed out roads and bridges, left at least one person missing and caused cars, couches and refrigerators to float away. Several communities are under states of emergency, and as many as 100,000 people could be forced from their homes in Calgary alone.

There were flashpoints of chaos from Banff and Canmore and Crowsnest Pass in the Rockies, to Calgary and beyond in the north and south to Lethbridge.

John E. Marriott, a photographer who lives along Cougar Creek in the mountain town of Canmore, about 100 km west of Calgary, said on Thursday that the raging torrent had moved within metres of his house.

Calgary floods: What you need to know now

1. I saw this on the news last night.

The water was moving incredibly fast and there was an entire house that went past and busted up when it banged into a bridge.

2. Yes. And in the middle of the flooding a sour gas pipeline has burst.

This stuff is dangerous, and people are being warned to stay in their homes, and get ready to evacuate.

3. They had a story on MSNBC's website

100,000 were preparing to evacuate.
