The system that prompted a snowfall warning for Kananaskis Country early Wednesday has since moved east towards Calgary, which will be covered in upwards of 25 cm by Saturday.

Further south, communities near Lethbridge are under a winter storm warning from Environment Canada, with snowfall accumulations of up to 40 cm expected.

If there was ever a time to invest in a solid pair of mittens, this would be it.
