Has Calgary's weather warning come too late?

Question

The city braces for heavy rain and funnel clouds as Environment Canada issues warnings. Some see this as a necessary precaution to keep people safe, while others argue it's an overreaction that disrupts daily life. Both sides agree on one thing: Calgary isn't prepared enough for extreme weather events.

Answer

They're doing their job by issuing early alerts and keeping residents informed during severe storms.

Answer

It’s a knee-jerk response, causing unnecessary panic when no funnel clouds actually form. People just want to go about their day without fear of the sky falling in on them.
