Can't get the WMI radar to load. The site is probably getting hammered. Post screenshots if you can.

Just got my 4th emergency notification. I get it EC, you can stop now.

Do we know where specifically the hail is?
If it's anything like the storm 4 years ago, yes. Every car on the street was totalled.

If it won't load, just imagine your kids are painting and mixing up all the bright colors all over. Basically that

When this went through cochrane, it was major winds mostly. Must have come together soon after. Looking outside, there is a second wave heading towards highway 8 area, but looks like rain and not as explosive.

Canvas gazebo shredded, screens on windows done, I can see vehicle dents, we'll see about siding after this passes.

Is it really IN Calgary if it's outside the ring road? I assume there are roving bands of goblins and feral wargs in such areas.

This is the most devastating hail I've seen in my entire life. I don't know how none of my windows shattered. Thank God my car is underground but all the cars in the parking lot of my condo are in trouble. A few ping pong sized but most slightly smaller, but just the insane quantity of it. My God.

Skyview area.

Basically was golf ball hail for like 5 minutes. Pounded my house as loud as I’ve ever heard. Calmed down now and haven’t looked at damage yet but looking around my neighbors cars they seem ok.

Took some siding damage in Panorama, lawn chair that was left on the deck got absolutely shredded, but thankfully both cars were in the garage. Roof is 2 years old and looks undamaged from what I can see so thankful for that as well

Tomorrow is going to be a very long call to the insurance company I'm guessing
