At 7:00PM radar indicates rotating thunderstorms moving eastsoutheastwards near Crossfield. There has been a report of a funnel cloud 3 km sw of Crossfield.
A hot and humid airmass persists over south and central Alberta. An approaching jet stream from the bc interior is expected to trigger thunderstorms along the foothills this afternoon and track east northeastwards. Should these thunderstorms form there is a good chance they will produce severe weather. Remember some severe thunderstorms produce tornadoes.
Hey KG... I feel real bad for not leaving when I said I was going to. I would have made it with time to spare... kicking myself now.
I figured you would have gone for sure. I even grabbed your cell number to keep you in the loop.
Things are moving pretty far east now. Not sure I really want to go out chasing that late tonight. Aidrie is about to get hit again. Pretty crazy night there.
Smaller planes or passenger jets? I am wondering if the seeders will get to the smaller cell that popped up in the last half an hour or so. It looked like it might hit us but it kinda turned and is headed right for Airdrie.

My mom says it is storming like crazy in Airdrie right now. Quarter sized hail. You will all be sad to know that one of my mom's cats is absolutely terrified right now.
Damn vista.
