Another chance for evening thundershowers in Calgary
AFTERNOON UPDATE: The rainfall is shifting, somewhat - not that we're diminishing its value, just relocating it! Overnight Friday is now taking the option for the heaviest period of showers. Still, 10-20 mm of rain is likely.
Temperature-wise, there's little change in scope. Sunday will continue warming. At this time, there are isolated showers possible, and even thundershower potential. However, the chances of these actions are small enough that I feel it's too soon to do more than mention them in a paragraph; they're not meant for the forecast just yet.
MORNING EDITION: Happy first day of summer!
Calgary looks at one to two millimetres of rain, with more in areas that deal with isolated thundershowers; there is a wide range where severe thundershowers are possible for your Tuesday, where nickel-sized hail and strong gusts will join that enhanced shower activity. You may want to bring an umbrella for the tee-ball game tonight, and park close… just in case those come to fruition.
On-air Monday, I mentioned the potential for severe storms through a region of central Alberta between Red Deer and Edmonton Wednesday; that potential is still active, and still being tracked.
Our longer-range outlook also calls for rain Thursday – not just showers – and with it, over 10 mm for Calgary remains in the forecast, spread over several hours, with heavier periods expected.
Lastly, the weekend still looks dry for now.
