The public has not forgotten the devastating tornado of Friday, July 31, 1987 which struck Edmonton, Alberta (1987 population 584000, 53o 34'N, 113o 31'W, elevation 680 m). The tornado killed 27 people, hospitalized 53 more, and caused injuries requiring treatment at 6 hospitals to approximately 250 others. Fatalities were confined to the industrial area (12) of east Edmonton and Strathcona County and to the Evergreen Mobile Home Park (15), where 133 homes were destroyed, in rural northeast Edmonton.
At 1455 Mountain Daylight Time (MDT), the Alberta Weather Centre (ALWC) received its first report about the tornado from a viewer 10 km south of the city. The ALWC transmitted a Tornado Warning at 1504 MDT, approximately 25 minutes before the first fatality occurred. Because of communication problems, many radio stations received their first reports about the tornado from their listeners (Hage, 1987a).
