Weather sure has been terrible lately. My thoughts are with everyone who has felt the wrath of Mother Nature over the last few days. Just when it seems like we’re finally going to get a stretch of nice summer weather, another round of storms rolls through.
I can’t believe some of the pictures and videos coming out of the Swan Valley. The flooding has been incredible to see, and it’s hard to imagine the challenges people are facing. With roads washed out and travel in and out of the area becoming difficult, many families and communities are dealing with far more than just a rainy day.
And it’s not just flooding. Many areas across the Prairies have been hit with heavy rain, damaging hail, strong winds, and even tornadoes. It seems like every time you check the forecast, there’s another weather warning popping up somewhere.
After a long winter and a slow start to spring, we were all looking forward to enjoying summer. Instead, many people are spending their days watching storm clouds and hoping the next system misses them.
Summer is only just beginning, so let’s hope Mother Nature starts to smarten up a little. A few weeks of sunshine, warm temperatures, and calm weather would be a welcome change for everyone. Until then, stay safe, keep an eye on the forecast, and let’s hope better days are just around the corner.
