Edmonton Storm Capital Ex

Some footage of the storm in Edmonton, Alberta on July 18, 2009 from Capital Ex. Lots of people trying to get out of the hail, then the LRT wasn't working, so we all had to wait for busses (which only seemed to go north).

@lupie1324 I was standing on various things such as ledges and garbage cans to get better camera angles.

LOL my parents were there in the storm i was at home playing oblivion and I was in the bastment so i couldn't hear anything, I got a phone call from my parents and they were crying telling me to stay in the bastment, I run upstairs, grab my dogs and my laptop and i looked out my window and I saw the most fucked up clouds ever! There was fucking huge ass hail and I ran back downstairs and i ran around and tried to contact my parents and I was home alone so I eventually passed out LMAOO!
