Edmonton isn't known for summer storms, but they do happen, and we had a doozy last night. I was at work, and was working just outside the garden center, when small bits of hail began to fall inside! I moved a couple of pallets out in case they got damaged, and had just completed this little project when the skies opened of, and the roof decided to not do its job. It was like watching a waterfall from behind as the water rushed down into the garden center for at least a half hour straight. I bet they had fun cleaning it up today ....

Made the national news, too...
I think the CBC were reporting that it was also the same storm system that spawned 3 tornados elsewhere in the province.

Scotland also
I saw on the BBC website that Edinburgh had a bad flashflood around 2:30 PM their time. Cars floating away down streets, ground floor businesses and residences inundated. The usual sort of mess.

Sounds like typical summer
Sounds like typical summer weather here. Hot, humid and a chance for storms (could be severe).
