  • Yeah, Swat1337, it was a pretty threatening looking thunderstorm and it was dark and a little circular. I don't think I would want to be caught out in the open with all of that lightning!

  • I took this video in west Edmonton in the Callingwood area.

  • Yeah, it was one wicked storm!

  • Continued... I was working on a house in north Edmonton then and I told my crew chief and the homeowner my prediction, but they looked at me and said "what? But it's so nice out here!". Within 2 hours, dark clouds moved in from opposite directions and we got pounded with downpours, hail and there was tons of lightning and dark clouds. One lady in Stony Plain took a pic of a small tornado hitting the edge of the Stony Plain golf course and it made the front page of the Sun the next day.

  • yep last year there was a few big storms i live in north edmonton on the garrison base .... i remember one night we had a huge storm blackout and another very loud with big strikes... heh yippe... more this year -.- :S

  • Yeah, we have had some wild storms here every summer! I remember one in early June '07 that hammered north Edmonton, St. Albert and Namao. It started out sunny, hot and calm, but then I noticed the clouds started moving in all directions. Taking that into account along with 30C temps and forecasts for nasty storms that day, I predicted that there would be a severe thunderstorm or possibly even a twister within hours somewhere in the Edmonton area. Continued...
