wow, that looks big on the hail suppression radar.


If I'm reading that right, there are not seeding planes in the air yet either.

Its great fun to watch where the strikes land and watch the sound wave propagate to your house.

Well if your windows are closed you'll be fine, mainly just heavy heavy rain, we had pea sized hail for maybe 30 seconds.
Definite flash flooding in areas.

One hell of a storm heading towards Calgary. Currently in Strathmore and its a torrential downpour for the last ~30mins, heavy winds, light hail etc...

That seems kind of weird, weather doesn't usually travel towards Calgary from strathmore does it? Current wind direction is towards the south.

Edit: no env Canada warnings for calgary

If it goes E to W it means potential flooding as the system is trapped.

I was basing that purely off the weather radar on the weather network, storm seems to be tracking North now.

I was thinking the same thing. That is pretty rare, as far as I know.

Forecast map says it's heading NNW from Strathmore, and will miss Calgary. Airdrie might see a tiny bit of it.

The weather map shows the system slithering around like a drunk snake....hit or miss of which parts of the city are going to see much

What map are you looking at? Weather Network is showing parts of Calgary getting hit by the red over the next few hours

Still no warnings for Calgary on env Canada. Was spitting a bit downtown but not anymore. Some patches of dark clouds to the N/NW but I can see very light clouds behind it so at least the NW probably isn't going to get much.
