Forecast verification for today
Fairly happy with our forecast for today. On the morning of July 24, 2019, we issued our severe weather update/outlook (see below) for Saskatchewan. We did a special livestream to address the severe weather expected today. If you are not a subscriber yet, you can become one here: https://www.nzpchasers.com/livestreams
In our outlook (shown above), we outlined a heightened tornado risk along the Yellowhead Highway from Saskatoon to the southeast. This is exactly where this storm developed and intensified. If a storm would have put down a tornado today, it would have been this one.
