Edmonton Storm #1 July 18, 2009

Link to Second half of the video (Hail Storm) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9l_UrJ6SDQg

We where at 33 degrees Celsius.. and within a hour and a half, a storm had come in with winds over 100km/h...

We had roof tops torn off houses, trees has been broken and or uprooted, Road signs had been torn off there poles... Large branches falling and covering entire roads... Golf ball size hail storms throughout the city... Lighting going almost 100% of the time... rolling thunder being herd for minutes at a time... West side of the city had Tornado Warnings and small funnel Clouds...

This is Part one of the Video... I live on the South end of the City.. this storm was on the North end.. so this storm is worse then it may appear in the video...

I heard there was a tornado

[jishua9999]

There was no sitings that i heard of, and there was nothing on the news about there actually being a tornado. but its all the same anyway. the wind was almost just as destructive...

[ChineseCow709]

omg the destruction this thing caused was amasing, some walls ripped off buildings and trees torn apart...

[jishua9999]

ya, probably the largest amount of damage without a tornado....

[becomearebelwithme]

we were driving around and it was super scary. one side of the street the power was completely out and the other side it was normal and there were trees on the road by capital ex. if a tornado had come around it would have just picked up our car and plopped it who knows where

[jishua9999]

The True Drop of fear. lol....

I'm pretty sure this is the storm my friend and I were caught in. We'd been playing frisbee in a park in Old Strathcona and the storm hit us in less than a few minutes. We almost got crushed by tree limbs and it was hailing huge stones and the winds were incredibly strong. It was scary as fuck. Much more enjoyable once we managed to get home.
