Calgarians had a rough commute on Tuesday afternoon, with flooding reported in the city thanks to heavy rain and hail.

A severe thunderstorm warning was issued for the city, but was lifted late in the afternoon.

Social media was full of submerged cars, some of which were waiting for their unsuspecting owners at the Southland and Heritage C-Train stations.
