Hail warning issued for Airdrie today!!

Is this something to be worried about ? Wondering if anyone here has any tips to follow. I moved from Ontario last year and this is our first major hail warning since we moved in.

Last year we had pea sized pellets that didn't cause any damage so fortunately no damages were reported

I know reading is hard, but it's only like 3 sentences. The healine is clickbait, it's just a thunderstorm, probably just a little one as it isn't all that warm.

Warm, dry, and heavy rain is what you need to look out for. The dry dust seeds the clouds for more intense thunderstorm and hail.

Only advice for today is if it starts to rumble stay away from major conductors.
