There's a really weird colour to the air in Airdrie. Almost like a rusty haze.

That would be the most likely culprit, I'm sure.

I won't believe there's no storm coming until I see a 'watch' or 'warning'.

No, this isn't thunderstorm weather, it's been overcast all day, and hasn't got up over 14C.

Could be rain, but no crazy rainstorm.

This is really the only thing that's worse than the Flames missing the playoffs.

We had pea-sized, then ping pong, then golf ball sized hail in Bridlewood, went on for about 20 minutes.
