The Ongoing Super Mega Weather Thread v3

[Sainters7]

Was just going to say I'm sitting on my balcony in Beltline looking west and there's a tonne of lightning in the distance. Wonder which way its headed..

[Brendone]

Quite the light show, rain and some small hail (niblet corn) over Priddis now. Very slow moving. Map has the bad stuff hitting just after midnight

[BlAcKNoVa]

This might be the first legit thunderstorm we've had here in my part of the SW since spring of 2021. Tons of lightning.

[djsFlames]

Epic lightning show rolling in.

Dont spark any fires don't spark any fires....

[Brendone]

Some really close lightening strikes now, thunder shaking the windows. Really heavy rain as well. Hopefully enough rain to put out anything the lightning starts

[djsFlames]

You know I could get down with this heat during the day, rain at night thing for the remainder of summer.

Rain is coming down sideways. This is pretty intense.

[DoubleK]

Gust front just went through.

[DoubleK]

And warned. This is not the rain I wanted.

[djsFlames]

You should know when it's warm the rain is always coupled with some sort of catastrophic conditions.

[btimbit]

What a show

[expo2428]

In turner valley right now where the storm is strong. Blew some fencing down and the sky is staying lit up every second with lightning

[btimbit]

Small hail now in evergreen

[Joborule]

Here's the hail downtown now.

[PaperBagger'14]

Rain in the deep SE, no hail yet

[Cecil Terwilliger]

This is the longest I can remember going without proper rain in Calgary.

[Huntingwhale]

Craziest lighting I think I've ever seen. Unreal show. Coming down hard in McKenzie now.

[btimbit]

Been at least 5 years since I've seen a storm like this. Pretty nuts there for a bit

[Cecil Terwilliger]

And it’s done already.

[PaperBagger'14]

...and here come the pretzels

[btimbit]

Well I timed that gas stop perfectly. Covered by the overhang without being on of these people taking up a pump just hiding
