Terrible flooding in southern Alberta today. These waters are now heading towards Medicine Hat tonight and into Lake Diefenbaker in Saskatchewan next. The city of Saskatoon is also in the path of this one in 500 year flood. Nobody has seen a flood like this before in Alberta so it is impossible to predict how bad it will get once it hits the dams in Lake Diefenbaker, the worlds largest man made lake. It is still raining in Calgary so there is really no end in sight. A total catastrophe and what will likely turn out to be the most costly disaster in Canadian history.

2pm Update: Pulse Storms Over Regina - Tornado Risk Dropping
As earlier predicted, storm cells have emerged over the city of Regina as of 1pm feeding from the nocturnal supercell which has since started to lose strength. These are pulse storms and only have infrequent lightning and brief downpours of rain. Much like yesterday, this system will gain strength over the afternoon and become very dangerous into the evening. The chance of tornadoes is low however the storms will become very widepspread across the southern parts of Saskatchewan. If storms back build as far as Alberta, there is a chance there of a tornado but very minisquelle. Most of the action today will be concentrated from the original cell and become stationary, shooting off back builders and heavy rain producers. This situation is being monitored very closely. Please pay attention to any warnings by Environment Canada and there will be an update here on Canadian Prairie Storms blog by or before 6pm.
Stay Safe!

Very Dangerous Storm System Now Hitting Southern Saskatchewan
A nocturnal supercell has held together through the night in south west Saskatchewan and is sweeping across the province at this time. Take precautions now if you are heading into work by closing open windows and gathering any loose items in your yard that may become projectiles. ETA for City of Regina is about 1pm. These storms will not die off in this environment, they will reorganize and turn very ugly especially along extreme areas of south central Saskatchewan. Early this afternoon this supercell will begin to shoot off tornadic cells to the south west of the feeder cell. BE ADVISED THIS IS A DANGEROUS STORM SYSTEM.
PLEASE: STAY SAFE!
