RRC Podcast Ep. 20 - A 2025 Prairie Weather Review

What this episode covers

From devastating drought to a destructive storm that tore across the Prairies, 2025 was a year that tested Canada’s farmers and rural communities. In this episode of the Rural Roots Canada podcast, powered by Alberta Canola, hosts Tim Parent and Craig Lester sit down with Rural Roots Canada meteorologist David Spence to unpack the biggest weather stories of the year, from bone-dry fields throughout the west to the monster August storm that caused nearly a quarter-billion dollars in damage. What lessons did we learn, and what could 2026 have in store? David gives his expert insight and perspective, and we share the stories behind the forecasts that shaped a challenging year in Canadian agriculture.
