With a risk of severe thunderstorms and potential for tornado development, CTV News Edmonton's meteorologists Josh Classen and Cory Edel will keep you ...

For Edmonton, it's looking like we see the risk of the storms around the supper hour into the mid evening, about 5 p.m. to 9 p.m. If you are heading to the Edmonton Elks game tonight or have outdoor activities planned, it will be a good idea to be prepared to change your plans with this potentially fast-changing weather. A small non-severe thunderstorm SW of Edmonton is moving NNE and should slide through western parts of the Edmonton metro region. Another severe storm south of Edson is also likely producing hail as well as heavy downpours. This means conditions are favourable for the development of severe thunderstorms that might produce a tornado. But, that may change later this afternoon as the storms continue to develop. At this point, we don't have exact timing or location details for storms within the WATCH. The area is now under a severe thunderstorm WARNING. That storm is moving north at 20 km/h towards Devon and the Edmonton region. But, we're keeping an eye on this cell west of Millet heading north towards the west end of the Edmonton region. So...as I said at 6:30 - there's no imminent threat of a storm over the city. Those two storms near Hay Lakes are not severe as of now but may be producing some small hail and are definitely dropping heavy rain. A severe storm just west of Stony Plain is slowly tracking northeast.

It's setting up to be a very active day across central and north-central Alberta with a high risk of severe storms late this afternoon and this evening.

The number of community gardens in Sudbury is growing. Today - Mix of sun & cloud. Aside from the late-day thunderstorm potential, it should be a decent day. A new report on mistakes made in B.C.’s long-term care sector during the early stages of the COVID-19 pandemic points to two major failures that impacted residents: a lack of visitors, and a lack of staff.

The federal government isn't considering putting up money to help buy shares in the only domestic manufacturer of COVID-19 vaccines, but it is 'working on a solution' with Medicago's parent company. A suspect is now in custody in connection with the death of Colton Crowshoe, an 18-year-old Calgary man who was last seen alive in 2014. etc.) remains to be seen. Mary-Sophie Harvey, a swimmer for the Canadian national team, is speaking out after she said she was drugged and injured on the final night of the World Aquatics Championships in Budapest last weekend. Mix of sun & cloud with a high in the low to mid 20s (depending on timing of precip). Canada is headed towards a moderate recession, but the economic contraction is expected to be short-lived compared to previous recessions, economists with Royal Bank of Canada predict. Don't read that and immediately jump to the conclusion that we're guaranteed to see a tornado in your neighbourhood.
