At least one tornado touched down in southeast Alberta in Canada on Saturday evening, as severe thunderstorms brought intense hail and flooding to Calgary and the surrounding area.

At 9:05 pm local time a possible tornado was spotted 30 kilometres south of Brooks, moving north at 60 km/h.

Footage showed cars in deep floodwaters in Calgary.

"An incredible flash flood absolutely buried these unsuspecting motorists' cars on Deerfoot Trail tonight," said filmer Christy Turner.
