A surprise thunderstorm approached me as I biked north on Rose St., thinking of going under the tracks to check out the remains of Big Sky Cycles after their shop burned up inside. From 12th Ave. I saw that a storm was over the Casino in the distance. By the time I got to Sask Dr. it was apparent I was going to get soaked if I continued. I started shooting photos and took cover in a parking garage with one other wise traveller.

Here’s when it left, with STC in the foreground.

Looked like there wasn't going to be much for pics tonight. I was wrong. #skstorm pic.twitter.com/srAdKuks8z

You know it's a big #skstorm in #YQR when you can see it from just south of #YXE. Taken at 8:50pm. http://t.co/xbgqCQLmsR
