Except for the major storm on July 21, the hailstorms: that did occur were light and widely scattered. South of Red Deer, hail was reported on 14 days in July but the number of reports was only 40 per cent of normal.. North of Red Deer, hail also was reported on 14 days, but -the number of reports was 78 per cent of normal because of the: July 21 storm which swept across an estimated three million acres. The 400 ieports received about the July 21 storm accounted for two-thirds of the mon- th s total. The severe storm on July 21 started west of Rocky Mountain House about mid-afternoon and travelled east for the next eight hours leaving a. path of hail from the size of a grape to the size of a golfball and larger (up. to 8 cm estimated to be as wide as 50 km. Several areas received near total crop destruction. The July 21 storm followed closely the track of a storm on June 30 which travelled south of Rocky Moun- tain House, through the Camrose area to near Vermilion. This storm spawned a number of tornadoes in the Rocky Mountain House, La- combe and Viking Areas. - Because of the unusually low number of hailstorms in July, cloud seeding: operations from.
