AFTERNOON UPDATE: 

 

MORNING EDITION: Widespread lightning continues in the province's southeast this morning, and we'll face the possibility of further storms throughout the day. As of 6 a.m., humidity levels remain at 81 per cent; I'll be watching for another wave by the noon-hour.

I'’s tough to spot Calgary on here, so please don't mind my doodling; according to the Strathmore radar charting, we ended up near 20 millimetres. the airport reported 8.6 mm by midnight.

For today, at least another 10 mm is expected; possibly another 20 mm.

The bright side to these showers and thundershowers through the day is that they've cleared us of Tuesday evening; the Wednesday morning showers are less likely to propagate, since we've wafted through the majority of energy before that.
