Thanks for the heads up, the storm front just hit us here in Edmonton, Alberta about half an hour ago, some moderate rain, but nothing too heavy, heavy rain / hail is in the forcast for us as well, hopefully some of it heads south and floods the Stettler region a bit

I got to be part of that hail storm yesterday in salt lake city utah. It lasted about 10 minutes and was one of the biggest ive seen.

Goofy weather up here this year. Water standing in the fields all over the place. When it rains, it pours!! Lots of water in basements, sewers backing up and flooding. Lightning shows most evenings, oh well, should have snow in a couple of months!!!!

dubie · 08-06-2004, 12:05 PM

here are some wicked hail pics from Edmonton

CSTrick · 08-06-2004, 12:10 PM

Excellent pics Dubie, those were taken in late June, early July if I remember correctly. Like I said, the weather has been bizzarre.

Grim Reaper · 08-06-2004, 12:45 PM

WOW that hail a couple pictures up looks like a Ice flow on a River!

We got some big time rain here yesterday. I have owned my house for 9 years and in 9 years only three time I have had water get in my garage. My yard slopes down from the back yard and all that water cuts accross the yard and then mostly goes over to a side yard. If it rains heavy enough it will start up against the back wall of the garage. The house is brick so this is a brick wall the water was pooling agianst. Made it's way though it. Not a lot of water but this is only the third time in 9 years I ever found any in there.

First time it happend I changed the flow to prevent it and get it mostly in that side yard. So my grading has helped a lot but still sucks.
