CALGARY (660 NEWS) – A severe thunderstorm warning is now in effect for the City of Calgary.

Environment Canada meteorologists are tracking a cluster of thunderstorms that could produce strong wind gusts, up to toonie-sized hail, heavy rain and flash floods.

The thunderstorm over Calgary is moving east. It has the potential to damage property or cause injury.

Calgarians are asked to secure loose items around their property. Environment Canada would like to remind people to stay indoors to prevent injury.

Calgary was also struck by intense rain, lightning and hail last week, which submerged several vehicles on northbound Deerfoot Trail.
