Here are some of the craziest pics & vids from today’s storm (VIDEO)
Did anyone else jump 3-feet off the ground when they got that tornado alert? She blew over pretty quick and the warning was lifted, but we were a little shaken not stirred for a few minutes there. If you’re a creature of the night who lives with their blinds closed and their curtains drawn, then man oh man, did you miss a show. Especially if you live in the west! Here are some of the craziest videos of the ABstorm that had us covering our ears in agony.
First, it was spotted rolling in from the outskirts of the city

Then the clouds started to flex like they were getting into a ring with Mike Tyson…

I couldn’t see much of the storm facing NW in East Victoria Park, but captured a nice timelapse. #abstorm #yyc #yycstorm pic.twitter.com/lE2AwSoFfy — Melie (@MelieBeep) July 23, 2020

Time-lapse looking SW #yyc from downtown. 3:32-3:42pm. Just before it was getting too wet to keep standing outside. Gotta love storm season in Alberta! #abstorm pic.twitter.com/8qkSYhKHl1

Even inanimate objects wanted to get the ‘F’ out of Dodge…
Another hailstorm? This blue bin was like “Nope. Bye y’all, good luck with the rest of this year.”🤣 #yyc #yycstorm #abstorm pic.twitter.com/BR3LRNvIOg — Mary Kirk (@iamMaryKirk) July 23, 2020
Finally … well, nothing happened. Twas’ just a close call, but as usual, it was pretty cool to watch.
Rain, thunder, wind, blue sky, and sun all at the same time. That about sums up Calgary weather #abstorm pic.twitter.com/cgdH9olv0J

Ahh… Calgary weather. What a ride. Enjoy the rest of your seemingly beautiful day, YYC! Here’s to hoping we won’t see another ABStorm for a while.
