Calgary to see some serious sunshine this weekend

Grab some sunscreen and throw on those shades, because Calgary is going to be seeing some sunshine this weekend.

After what has been a relatively mild week, we’re happy to report that The Weather Network’s seven-day forecast is calling for a return to summery form over the next few days.

We’ll start off with mainly sunny skies this Friday and Saturday, both bringing highs of 22°C.

Sunday is when the real fun begins, with 12 hours of unimpeded sunshine, a high of 26°C that feels closer to 28°C, and winds of just 10 km/hour.

Monday will truly bring the head, however, with a high of 30°C that feels like 32°C, which will likely prompt an Environment Canada heat warning. Tuesday follows up nearly as hot with a high of 29°C feeling like 31°C.

The rest of next week cools off a bit, while Thursday returns to the risk of thunderstorms that we’ve been seeing throughout the entirety of this summer.

So just make sure to enjoy that sunshine while you can, Calgary!
