thunderstorms, which had developed on Tuesday, have changed into an
area of rain over southwestern Alberta. Heavy downpours have already
produced over 70 millimetres of rainfall in the Nordegg, Airdrie,
kananaskis and Pincher creek regions. Another 20 to 30 mm is
forecast for today with over 50 mm possible over the foothills. As
the low slowly weakens tonight and Friday, accumulations will
gradually taper off. However, including today and Friday, another 50
to 100 mm of rain is possible.
Please refer to the latest public forecasts for further details.
