Calgary’s proposed weather-warning system will send real-time weather data to site supervisors
Shortly before 8 a.m. on Aug. 1, 2009, a sudden gust of wind swept a bundle of corrugated metal off of an 18-storey building under construction in downtown Calgary. A six-metre-long piece of metal struck a family more than 30 metres below, killing a three-year-old girl, Michelle Krsek, and injuring her father and seven-year-old brother.
