Today's Forecast

Saskatoon is now sitting under some increasing clouds with a temperature of 30 C. 58% humidity and a dewpoint of 21 C. The wind is west at 11km/hr. It could be a day to watch the weather as we do have a forecast of severe thunderstorms and at the same time, tornadovideos.net is focusing of the eastern part of Saskatchewan for tornadoes later today...

Check back in August!

Just to let everyone know... I will not be doing any storm chasing
this year. The month of July has convinced me that I have lost the
battle for my computer and my house. I simply must work independently
towards next year and the years ahead. Lots of people still think I
can chase storms but I have music videos to produce, graphic designs
to work on, web-sites to build, groceries to stock and most
importantly, families to build. The weather will always be there and
it is not getting any hotter than it ever was. There is nothing to
worry about. I bet there will be a big storm tomorrow or tonight
somewhere but it really doesn't matter that much. Eat some spicy food,
stay out of the water and avoid heat stroke. Keep moving and be happy.
People that drive gas powered vehicles are bordering on breaking
environmental laws. Get a bike and ride it. In the city you can get
places just as fast or faster. The biggest storms will always be
outside of the cities. We are all very lucky. Thank God.

Saskatoon's Thunderstorm Video Today...

The mosquitoes are worse than the storms in Saskatoon while everywhere else get damaging and dangerous tornadic severe weather! Moose Jaw got golf ball size hail today as we get ripped off once again. Still not even one thunderstorm for the city unless you count our heavy rain/flood. I have only seen a few non-severe lightning flashes all year. Here is the video I took anyhoo, you can clearly see on the radar shot that the storm splits around the city again...

Tornado Watch

I am currently monitoring a situation in south-west Saskatchewan that most likely will bring Saskatoon some real thunderstorm action later tonight. A tornado watch has been issued with a severe thunderstorm warning for Maple Creek and Cypress Hills. Storms are moving very fast at 50km/hr in a north-east direction. Golf ball size hail and 100km/hr wind gusts have been reported with these storms. Large thunderstorms are now hitting heights of 45 000 feet along the Alberta/Saskatchewan from Llyodminister to the US border. The most dangerous storms will be coming from the Swift Current region towards Saskatoon. Environment Canada has a forecast for these storms to arrive by midnight in Saskatoon.
