Alberta: Thunderstorm Forecast for Monday, May 22, 2023

There is the risk of severe thunderstorms in parts of Alberta. This is an isolated severe risk for the most part, although the latest data indicate a more elevated risk around the Saskatchewan border which is why we’ve added a slight severe risk to our map for the Edmonton, Red Deer, Lloydminster and Medicine Hat regions. Storms will start by Monday afternoon and will continue to move eastward throughout the evening. The main risks are up to 3cm size hail and 100+ km/h wind gusts. There is also the potential for an isolated tornado associated with these storms.
