Zetter Posted July 11, 2004 Share Posted July 11, 2004 :pinch: I am guessing by the extreme weather (compared to the drizzle out my window) that this is edmonton, canada and not edmonton, london, england where I live 10 mins from That hail looks pretty deadly Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/189097-edmontonworst-weather-eva/#findComment-2464919 Share on other sites More sharing options...

QuantumTrickery Posted July 11, 2004 Share Posted July 11, 2004 Those are tiny. I lived in the midwest for a while, saw golfball, baseball and grapefruit sized hail. And I'm not exaggerating either.

Mister Lamar Posted July 11, 2004 Share Posted July 11, 2004 its been in the 50's and 60's here in Seattle, Nice MidSummer weather, its starting to warm up, but so far its been real chilly.

hyperactive Posted July 11, 2004 Share Posted July 11, 2004 Can't speak for edmonton, but in Canmore you can watch the thunderheads form and move east to calgary. THe thunderheads go east and run into cold north air and presto - hailstorms! I got hit by a hailstorm in k-country this past monday. It is not fun to be running along, have the air temp drop, sky turn black, and get pelted by pea-sized iceballs!! To think there are over 500 fires burning in BC right now because it is so dry. Strange how BC is dry and Alberta is wet when it is usually the other way around.

jonovate Posted July 12, 2004 Share Posted July 12, 2004 Yah its brutal from what i saw on the news.. they had to collapse parts of the WEM Ice Palace glass over the roof to prevent further leakage from other parts of the wall; so it can drain.
