    @Renauda Oh I remember that. You were that close 😳 I remember news of that. It was the worst tornado recorded. There were pledges never to rebuild that trailer park. Did they? I was at the UofA then but on days off in YYC. You are darn right about the conditions before and after. Here, last week, yes the lightening & thunder were dramatic, and yup, it turned cold. No hail, but yes in Didsbury.

      I checked and the trailer park is still there and operating. Pretty sure there is memorial on site though as that was where most of the victims killed were. The others were in the industrial era close to where I live.

      Won’t forget that afternoon.

        Since it is tornado season in the US again.

        Crazy video of a tornado destroying a manufacturing plant in Nebraska a couple of days ago.

          We’re under a tornado warning now.

            It has been a heck of a season the last few weeks...

              Is it, or is it that they cover it a lot more?

                I guess my statement was a mixed one. Looks like it's a normal season so far, but the last few weeks we've seen a big spike in activity to bring us to the average.

                Also I should note... since everyone has a 4K HD video camera in their pocket these days, the footage has been unbelievable!

                  I guess that is through April 28. There's been quite a few twisters in the last week.

                        There has been a lot of new weather radar technology deployed during the last 70 years.

                        The methods used to count them must have changed many times.
