Wow... Eau Claire here is getting HAMMERED. Golf ball-sized hail. It sounded like the market was going to collapse!

Right by the university here, golf ball size average.

All the cars on the street have pretty noticeable damage to the hoods and roof.

I also lost some siding on my garage roof. It was crazy here.

Wouldn’t be Stampede without extreme weather. I love the schadenfreude associated with thunderstorms and the Stampede grounds.

UofC got SMOKED. I'll upload some pics in a second. I took a video too which is youtube bound.

here's something for those of you wondering how your car looks ... (sorry)






Reports from around the office that rear windows on some cars are totally blown out.

coworker's younger brother got some tennis sized ones around the university (24th ave). They spidered his windshield and busted an indicator light.

I got home from an appointment in Chestermere five minutes before it hit. I saw the clouds rolling in the whole time, and cursed the tourists getting in my way.
