Severe thunderstorm warning issued for the Shuswap
KAMLOOPS — A severe thunderstorm warning was issued for the Shuswap early Saturday evening.
Environment Canada issued a watch around 9:30 a.m., July 30.
Forecaster Greg Pearce said storms could develop just west of the Shuswap mid-afternoon, moving east in the late-afternoon to early evening.
“Of course, we had sunny, very hot conditions yesterday,” Pearce said. “Now we’ve got this cold upper trough moving down from the northwest and it’s going to result in much cooler weather today and also the development of these thunderstorms.”
