Alberta Foothills Weather

August 9

Servere thunderstorm watches went up today before noon from Waterton park to Ponoka, and around 6pm this thing rolled out of the foothills. Nothing but some wind and a bit of rain, a few hail bits but not enough to mix a drink.

There was plenty of ice laying around Red Deer after the nasty hail storm they got last night. These amazing shots were passed along by Mike Nylin in Anders.
