BadWeatherKyleToday's environment looks supportive of severe weather with all hazards in east-central Alberta.
Wildfire smoke may temper destabilization somewhat, and make storm spotting trickier in reduced visibility. #abstorm https://t.co/0MhAZCXrmuSat, 18 Jul 2026 16:14:20 GMT
PaulBovisWell, I was just planning on gardening and housecleaning today, but I have made a curious change in plans haha. See y’all out there! #abstormSat, 18 Jul 2026 16:03:17 GMT

MorganLaidlerHorizontal convective rolls (otherwise know as cloud streets), they’re a type of arcus cloud.
They’re caused by when cool dry air moves over a warmer surface.
You could even see them on radar.
Taken in west Edmonton around 7am.

BraydonMoreSoA potentially dangerous day lies ahead for portions of the Prairies. Supercells are expected to develop, capable of producing damaging winds, large hail, and long-track tornadoes. #abstorm #skstorm https://t.co/XynZerSqMLSat, 18 Jul 2026 14:09:13 GMT

RFD_MaverickToday risk is very high. Stay up-to-date and listen to all warnings.
All hazards in play.

RyanVoutilainenPotentially dangerous storms are possible across central AB & SK. CAPE values over 3000J/kg are uncommon this far north, creating a setup more typical of the U.S. Plains. Supercells capable of very large hail, destructive winds, & tornadoes may develop this PM. #ABStorm #SKstorm https://t.co/sE2paJ8C2lSat, 18 Jul 2026 12:51:33 GMT
NatePowerSo, YEG - now’s a good time to review your plans for a tornado warning, because today absolutely has a chance to see one or two.
Lowest floor, sturdy building, interior room away from windows, friends. #abstormSat, 18 Jul 2026 12:33:54 GMT

BadWeatherKyleSignificant tornado along the Rocky Mountain foothills of central Alberta this evening!

AdiabtAristocrtSo as the base and anvil of the Rocky Storm separated, I think it may have spawned a little funnel, which lasted for a few minutes. Hard to tell if its actually spinning.
If so, thats one of the coolest things I've ever seen in my career as a meteorologist.

AdiabtAristocrtThe base and anvil of the Rocky storm have decided to divorce 💔

AdiabtAristocrtThis storm either needs to move east out of the woods or die already; I wanna get some sleep lol

RyanVoutilainenMoon & mammatus over Alder Flats, AB from a slowly dying supercell near Rocky Mountain House. The cap too strong and flow too weak get things going outside deep in the foothills.
Great for weather weary Albertans not so much for Storm chasers

KarlieMildraedI don’t think we’ll get anything tonight. We continue to stew in this soupy weather. #yegwx #abstorm.Sat, 18 Jul 2026 04:08:25 GMT
