I know it's bad because we never wrap up at work before we get wet and today, we were out of there with only a couple drops falling as we got in our vehicles. To the NW of the city is looked very disgusting. Saw some wicked lightning in that direction on the way home.

Serious thunder and lightning not too far from where I live as I type this.

I hope I'm right but, it does appear to be missing Okotoks at the moment.

Does anyone have a link to current/future conditions or at least some information more specific to the Calgary Airport?

Looks like it split up and went north and south of Okotoks.

This one has the weather modification people all messed up... I haven't seen them seed in the wrong area so many times in 1 session..

How do you tell where they are seeding?

I'm still hearing some banging and rumbling coming from the south and I'm in the NW. They'd likely drop the watch/warning if the storm was past. I don't think we are in the clear here even then, remember Sunday? lol

More to come for the city..

There is one BIG cell that is projected to be heading N-NE entering the city on the very SW corner.. it's not quite there yet.. bout 15 min away it seems... Looks like its gonna catch part of the SW and good part of the SE..

You can tell where they are seeding on the weathermod.com site. On the images the Strange green lines are the seeding path of the planes, and the white line is the second plane they send up..

So much for the split MG, rain and marble size hail as I type in Okotoks.
Lots of lightning as well.
