Calgary to start the summer off with thunderstorms and week-long rainfall

The Weather Network is reporting a rather bleak forecast that will see a gorgeous Monday filled with sunshine… before taking a complete 180Ā° and hitting the city with risks of strong thunderstorms on Tuesday and Wednesday.
The oh-so frightening thunder and lightning will be accompanied by a 40% chance of precipitation on Tuesday and a 70% chance on Wednesday, with a total of around 15 mm of rain expected to fall before Thursday comes around.

Thursday and Friday both sit at an 80% chance of rainfall and a total of around 15 to 20 mm.
Saturday might just be the one standout, with a 40% chance of around 1 mm coming down, while Sunday is set to bring a few showers at around 5 mm.
Next week starts off with straight rainfall of around 15 mm… which will honestly do wonders for Calgary’s usually-parched summer greenery, but may put a damper on those start-of-summer plans.
We’re sure the sun will come outĀ tomorrow eventually ā just keep those fingers crossed!
