Today's Outlook Map - Alberta Storms Return

Southern Alberta is already seeing supercells develop along the foothills once again today and these will slowly move east. Severe thunderstorm warnings have been issued from Rocky Mountain House to Red Deer and watches continue further south from there. Manitoba may get a brief severe thunderstorm later in the day or evening but contained mainly to the far southeast pushing into Ontario tonight. Saskatchewan and most of Manitoba will be clear of any storms until tomorrow. Storms may become fairly widespread on Friday throughout southern Saskatchewan so we will have to monitor to see where things go overnight tonight.

Overnight Severe Thunderstorm Risk Dimished [Map]

After severe thunderstorms battered parts of eastern Saskatchewan including areas of the Quill Lakes and Yorkton regions, supercells have pushed into south west Manitoba and are rapidly dissipating. Models suggest these storms will not go much further overnight. Tomorrow, the risk moves into southern Manitoba and another system will begin in Alberta. Friday looks to be the most active in south central parts of Saskatchewan.

5pm Risk Map Update

Just saw a tweet saying Lanigan has been issued a Severe Thunderstorm warning. Environment Canada's website has been down for the past 2 hours or so. From Intellicast.com some incredible temperature gradients throughout the south central areas of Saskatchewan:

Outlook 77F Elbow 90F
Lanigan 77F Dafoe is 93F

The cap should start to break and super storms will emerge in the next couple hours in these areas.
