On August 5th, the @westernuNHP & @ibhshailstudy field teams tracked an intense storm from west of Cochrane into Calgary. The teams collected detailed data, including deploying disdrometers and hailpads ahead of the storm and collecting many large hailstones. #abstorm #hail

The UAV team is out near Consort, AB today with our multispectral NDVI mapping drone (DJI M300) completing a follow up mission of the crop damage caused by the July 13th hailstorm, where we collected 50 mm #hail .#abstorm #hailresearch

Here are some preliminary results from yesterdayβs mission. The values next to the points on the map indicate the largest size of hail collected by the field team at that location. #abstorm #hailreseach
The @westernuNHP field team just collected some interesting looking #hail east of Lacombe, AB. This hailstone, for example, measures 58 mm across the nodes and was likely caused by an abundance of supercooled water within the storm. #abstorm #hailresearch

As a follow up from this event, here is a preliminary mission map, showing the radar estimated Maximum Expected Size of Hail (MESH). The teamsβ tracks and where data points were collected is also overlayed. #abstorm #hailresearch
The @NHP_field team captured a vast amount of data today from a supercell that travelled through eastern Alberta. The team tracked the storm for ~4 hours and documented the hailswath dimensions, conducted UAV flights of hail and damage, and collected hail up to 48 mm. #abstorm
