Weather today in Alberta

[spirits]

Just south of Calgary. Near Banff in the Rocky Mountains. And you Yanks wonder why we wear parkas in July!!!!

Note the bikers...we are pretty hardy folks up north!!!

I haven't been up to the high country here today. It's 30 degrees (F) colder here today than yesterday. Snow was predicted above 6,500 ft. We're at almost 4,000 so it isn't all that far. And we're only 45 miles N. of Nevada. Strange weather. Naturally, I'm in shorts & a T-shirt.

....And here we sit in 95 degrees....

Ugh.

Brrrrrr, low 80's in Santa Fe (at 7000 feet). Very pleasant.

Better since the dust moved through?
That is effecting things here at present..

We're not getting the dust you are, but we do get our own dust due to the winds. We are more getting some haze due to the fires in Arizona and some in New Mexico as well.

Is Molson blood antifreeze?

Do you know more exactly where this was? Banff is really more West of Calgary as opposed to South. Just curious - I live in Calgary and its rained quite a bit at my house today, but definitely hasn't snowed. I'd think this must be in the mountains?

Heavy mist here in Los Angeles this morning. JB Orange Cat came in from being out for 20 minutes and was fussing and fussing. "You just came in, your bowl is full of crunchies, what exactly is your issue??" Reached out to calm him, and he's wet. I got up and he beat me to the old towel stash in the laundry room and then reveled in being dried off by his Mommy!

Well, didn't you feel that way when you were younger too?

Here is the twitter video....it says south of Calgary but I thought our American Tuggers would know of Banff rather than Calgary.

Since it is hail, not snow, doesn't need to be in the mountains!

Yeah, I couldn't tell it was hail from the original picture/post. That definitely changes things.

Pffft, that's nothing. We only hit 76 here and we're freezing in the June Gloom!

Me neither! It would have been much more exciting if it HAD been snow. As you know, we see hail like this every year. But it is STILL something to see!
