Severe thunderstorms in Calgary cause damage to Airport and surrounding areas

The Calgary International Airport took to social media saying “We can confirm there has been damage to YYC's terminal building due to hail and heavy rainfall”.

I think it’s safe to say that Calgary isn’t having a water shortage anymore

We needed the rain big time . Hope everyone is ok

This is all Trudeau’s fault, if he didn’t fund those hails, they wouldn’t be so strong like that

I was on a flight going to Calgary but we had to land in Edmonton sat on plane for 2 hours then got canceled and now wheee driving home I hope everybody stayed safe

I feel sad for all the gardeners in Calgary ! First the water shortages now hail!

For those visiting Calgary, we apologize for the delay. A series of Supercell Thuderstorms struck Calgary and the surrounding Metro with Golf ball sized hail. Please be patient as damage assessment needs to be completed for aircraft and buildings, before normal operations can proceed. Thank you again for your patience!!

So why is the house in Calgary so much expensive since it’s a HAILSTORM CAPITAL OF CANADA?

[ianleslie]

Lawns watered the old fashioned way 💪😳🤠

Never buy a brand new car if you live in Calgary. Hail is a normal occurrence in Calgary and so your car will just get damaged and devalued quickly because of it.

As for houses, make sure to get Stucco siding for more durability.

I live in se Calgary. I got a thunderstorm after Environment Canada cancelled the thunderstorm warning. Compared to the north, the storm was wussy.

[duxrusso]

Its really nothing new here, i remember when a storm like this would happen during stampede. Calgary needed the rain anyway to help with the effects Gonedike's water ban...

[deanfournel]

Just curious, was Alberta cloud seeding in hopes to prevent fires?

[LuLynn-mgvb]

This happens every year, last time it was this serious it was 2020.

[AL_EVOz]

lol we got pelt with golf ball size hail in the NW. It was something I have never seen in the NW area.

[tddytddy]

What do you expect, Calgary is in the hail belt after all!

[VintageFordChannel]

We are still at level one water restrictions. We are in a climate emergency. -Gondek

[curtislow]
