Nasty #skstorm coming into Sask south of Leader. Best crops in 10 years around here, lots of hail in this one, crossing my fingers for the farmers in its path!

Couple drone shots and 1 second timelapse 🤣 of the Cardston hailstorm an hour ago. Had to pack up pretty quick as this storm was coming in fast. #abstorm

Found a bolt east of Airdrie, AB around 22:00 yesterday evening (July 18/2025). Looking WNW. My favorite time of year. Share away(with credit given). @GinaCTV @weathernetwork @BadWeatherKyle @lightningmanAB @BraydonMoreSo #abstorm

Severe weather potential returns to parts of southern Alberta and Saskatchewan on Saturday... A southwesterly jet ahead of an upper low/trough atop a moist, unstable air mass could present an all-hazards severe weather threat in the afternoon and evening.

-1c at #HighwoodPass in #Kananaskis hard to get an accurate measurement but with the settled heavy wet #snow still over 30cm I’d say at least 45cm fell #abstorm #ShareYourWeather #June2025
