What on earth happened to Environment Canada’s public alert map?? It is complete dogs—- now. Was always the one thing I thought they did well. The redesign in pretty useless.

Super loud thunder and the power flickered in Killarney. Pretty good storm!

Seems to be passing south of Chestermere but was sitting at a light and the lightning was flashing every few seconds it was crazy.

Slowed down just in time. Water is right up to my basement windows and side door, nothing came in but wow that was close. Sooo glad I decided to put in window wells with gravel.


You would think Environment Canada would put out an alert.

You think that they'd turn off some of the electrical things, like maybe the TV's at least?
