Definitely no drought in the southern part of the region, but it sounds like they have had very little of this up north. Smoke starting to move in again this afternoon apparently.

Yeah the Bow is quite high, a lot of the little pathways I like to walk on the N side of Edworthy are currently under water.

It's also data by the airport. Because thunderstorms are so localized, it might already be the wettest overall for the city, just not at the airport.

I bet we will get a big heat wave at some point in August. Whatever system is giving us all this rain has to move out at some point...

Springbank to YCC is about 25km, and shows a 25 to 30% difference in rainfall. Illustrates the highly localized rain conditions here.

Damn, Springbank airport area must be super green and lush this summer!! lol
I flew in yesterday and from the plane was shocked how green Calgary and area is. Usually by now everything's a mix of light green, yellow and brown. If I'm not mistaken, don't la nina years usually have a wet summer?
