At 3:50 Pm Radar Indicates A Severe Thunderstorm Located Just Over Calgary And Is Heading Southeast At 35 Km/h. This Storm Can Produce Strong Winds, Large Hail And Heavy Downpour. In Addition Doppler Radar Also Indicates Rotation Within The Storm And Funnel Clouds Are Possible. Local Flooding Due To Heavy Downpour Is Expected.

Plenty of wind in the deep south of the city, but no rain as far as I can tell.

Yeah lots of rotation, I just drove through it from downtown to Chestermere. My son had his fingers in his ears the whole way. I was hoping for bigger hail as I want my car repainted.

Lol, he was inside saying the clouds were giving us water, and it just stopped here in Chestermere, so now he's outside talking to the clouds:

"Hey clouds, you're done raining?"
"Yes, do you want to come play with us?"
"Ok, but I don't have a big giant bean stalk."

Then he comes and asks me if there's a big giant beanstalk near our neighbour kids' house, I say no.

"Clouds, are you gonna hold me?"
"Yeah!"

Then he shows me the candy and grapes that the clouds gave him. The part of the clouds is played in a high voice almost inaudible to humans.

Ask him for the cloud's opinion on the Bertuzzi signing.

I don't think there's a rain strong enough for that.

I was driving around Inglewood today scouting some shooting locations. I looked up and see this ominous cloud hanging over downtown. I booked it up to Scotsman's Hill and snapped a few shot 3 mins before it poured.
