Episode Details

Alberta’s tornado season is exploding — 26 confirmed twisters so far, the highest in nearly 40 years and nearing the all-time record of 30 set in 1980. The most recent EF2 near Rocky Mountain House ripped roofs off and snapped trees with winds over 180 km/h. Multiple outbreaks — including 10 in three days in May and 8 in June — have fueled the surge. Blame it on record-breaking June moisture, creating sticky, humid air that fuels severe storms. With hotter days ahead, forecasters warn more tornadoes are likely. Residents must stay alert as Alberta faces a volatile weather pattern bringing not just tornadoes, but damaging storms and flooding — a stark reminder that climate change is delivering more powerful, unpredictable extremes.
